Description
Nestled between the North York Moors National Park and the Howardian Hills, Ampleforth Abbey could scarcely occupy a more serene and picturesque location.
It was sometime in the early 2000s that one member of the community had an idea to utilize the excess harvest by making cider. Initially a hobby, Ampleforth Abbey Drinks is now run by lay staff for the benefit of the community, supplying many local farmshops, visitors centres and pubs with our award-winning produce.

Sampled @ RB Danish Summer Gathering 2013 day 1, Ulfborg. Bottle. No head, clear golden color. Aroma is very weird and imo not really inviting. Sweetness, chemical. Taste apple, sweetness and again a bit chemical. Very weird. Low body and carbonation. Not my thing I guess.
