Fenceline Cider’s Seasonal Tesgüino Tamarind Agave Cider Hits Shelves
MANCOS, CO— Fenceline Cider is excited to release its summer seasonal, Tesgüino Tamarind Agave Cider, on Sunday, May 5 to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. This Southwest-inspired cider will be available across Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico.
Tesgüino is crafted with Tamarind and blue agave, ingredients widely used throughout Mexico and the Southwest. Their flavors make complementary recipe additions, especially with well-rounded cider as a base. Tamarind has a rich, complex flavor that’s simultaneously sweet, sour and bitter. Agave has a subtle floral sweetness. The cider combines the best of both: semi-sweet with a robust tanginess.
2024 marks the fourth vintage of Tesgüino— at first a draft-only offering that grew so much in demand that Fenceline decided to package it seasonally. It will tap on Sunday, May 5 at 2pm when the taproom opens. The Fencepost Food Truck will serve up food specials for the occasion, including a pork rib with a Tesgüino glaze and elote, and cider-infused dessert.
Find four-packs of 12oz. cans of Tesgüino at the Fenceline taproom in Mancos, and across Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico while supplies last.
Look for Tesgüino at the inaugural Montezuma Rising music festival on Sunday, May 26 at the Fenceline Cider taproom. This day-long community celebration will bring some of the best local bands in the Four Corners to Fenceline’s riverside stage. Purchase tickets here.

ABOUT FENCELINE CIDER
Preserving the legacy of the American West, by upcycling wild and historic apples into distinct handcrafted cider.
Rooted along the upper tributaries of the Colorado River, Fenceline was founded with a curiosity and admiration for wild and historic apples. Surrounded by thousands of abandoned orchards that continue to grow in Montezuma County’s rich soil and arid climate, we are committed to upcycling the region’s heritage apples and wild, one-of-a-kind varietals into extraordinary craft cider.
Reviving the region’s cider traditions, our cider is crafted with cold, slow fermentation — producing a drier libation, with complex flavors, and less sugar.
What began by crafting a barrel of hard cider for a friend’s union from a handful of heirloom apple trees, has blossomed into the place for people, from near and far, to come together in the Mancos Valley, at our little spot on the river. Visit us online at fenceline.co.
