Uncork this bottle to celebrate Scottish apple bounty. Sip your way through secluded walled gardens and forgotten orchards. The time honoured artisan method of keeving is rounded by fermentation in the bottle – Méthode Champenoise. This uniquely Scottish bubbly boasts honeycrisp flavour and yellow undertones. Serve chilled as an aperitif or for your special occasion. This is not cider, this is seidear.
Our cider takes at least a year from harvest to bottle. We take our time, because the results are remarkable.
Our apples come from walled gardens across the North East of Scotland. We have found that small apples from older orchards often release the most interesting flavours, when expertly handled by our seidear maker. Our apples are coming from our own orchard at Cluny Castle, from Haddo House walled garden, and from many small backyard orchards.
Christian is our chief seidear-maker [CSM] responsible for reviving traditional techniques and adapting them to the Scottish climate and its unique apples. Colin is our chief fruit officer [CFO] and knows all about orchards and apples.
