One of the most renowned cider apples and one of our all-time favourites.
We love making single-varietal cider from this apple as it never fails to deliver intense and strong expressions of the fruit.
Kingston Black is a rich, coloured cider with enticing aromas of fresh apples and a hint of tropical notes.
The natural acidity brings vibrancy to the palate, which is balanced by subtle tannins and notes of baked apple & caramel.
Kingston Black continues to be a versatile choice for any occasion. Four generations in the making.
Recommended with seafood or soft cheese.
