Before the Autumn cattle sales there would be Bull Wallopers calling on Mr Hunt, “’Ave ee some of that strong cider? Us had it ‘ere last year!” they’d ask, whilst eyeing his best cattle. This rich, medium-sweet cider always helped drive the bidding a little higher.

Box @ Hunt's Cider, Devon. Clear gold. Vibrant nose of pure natural fruit, gentle sweet. Flavour profile presents a hearty medium dry, good natural fleshy fruit with an excellent full tannic presence.. hints of apple core and orchard must round things off. My cider of choice from Hunt's.
