Gabriela Muñoz
Gabriela Muñoz has been working with Keepsake Cidery for going on six years. Her work at Keepsake includes production, sales management, deliveries, tasting room crew, resident DJ, and most importantly, harvesting sunshine and smiles. She went from not understanding cider at all to drinking almost exclusively cider and is a one-woman force in the Twin Cities beverage community. She is single-handedly shifting the marketplace – one restaurant and wine shop at a time – to understand fine, natural cider and the role cider plays in reshaping the Twin Cities beverage culture, which is currently experiencing an over-saturation of wine, beer, and flash-in-the-pan trend beverages. Hence, her work involves creating an appreciation and permanent space for fine cider within the Twin Cities beverage landscape. She will gladly step into the ring with anyone who doubts cider as deserving of its own space alongside wine, beer, and spirits (and she will win).
