Associated with 2 Venues
Established in 1980
Description
Founded in Herefordshire.
Pressed, fermented, and bottled in Gloucestershire.
Dunkertons history reaches back to 1980 when Ivor and Susie Dunkerton made the decision to escape London and buy a small holding in Pembridge, Herefordshire. They realised that with such a small amount of land they needed to specialise in some form of agriculture and spotted that traditional cider making presented a fantastic opportunity.
In 2014 Ivor and Susie passed Dunkertons to their son Julian and his business partner Bean.
In 2016 the production business relocated to our new state of the art cidery at Dowdeswell Park, Cheltenham.

Bottle, courtesy of Minutemat in a Euroswap. Pours clear golden with a medium, short lived head. Aroma is apples, light farmhouse, acidic, soft booze. Body is medium, softly sweet and acidic, with some tartness, and the alcohol shining through. Strong lively carbonation. Rather low flavours for the thick mouthfeel. Palate is medium try, and again slightly booze. Quite good.

Bottle from Booths, Media City. Golden-yellow coloured cider. Has an easy-drinking texture for its strength, which is evident, but its apple is stated enough too. Slightly dry and slightly sweet.

Bottled. Golden colour with a minor white head. Aroma is sweet apples, mild wooden notes, some slight sourish notes as well. Flavour is sweet apples, some slight tart apples and also some mild sour wooden notes. Nicely dry and somewhat tartish sweet finish, making it an easy quaffer.

Bottled. Yellow colour, not that much head. Aroma is crisp apple juice and some green apple skins, mild vanilla and wooden notes to it as well. Flavour is similar, but the apples give it a real fresh punch. Also has some slight fudgelike creamy sweetness to it. Lovely dry, and really refreshing. Would fit as a dessert just by itself.
