Sean and Malaika Tyson
As the CiderSoms, Sean & Malaika Tyson develop and produce written, visual, and multimedia cider related content. This husband and wife team began their adventures in cider almost two decades ago and have converted many cider skeptics into cider lovers. Through their work with the ACA’s Antiracism, Equity, & Inclusion committee, the “Soms” have sought to increase the diversity of the cider industry and its consumers. In 2023, the ACA awarded Malaika & Sean its highest honor – the Significant Impact on the Industry Award – in recognition of their contributions to the cider community.
