A mix of Cox and Bramley with a touch of Red Gloss from the orchards of Oast Fruit Farm in Buxted. We pressed this on the last glorious sun-filled day of the autumn, perhaps there’s a hint of that in the sweet tangy finish. Naturally clear, uncarbonated, unpasteurised, wild fermented and slow matured.
