Description
Welcome to Duckchicken Cider. We are a small batch cider maker operating in South London, SW16 since 2016. Our ciders are fully fermented (dry), non-sweetened and non-pasteurised Eastern style ciders. That means using dessert or eating apples instead of traditional cider apples. The apples we pick are from three Kentish orchards, which would otherwise leave the apples unused. In 2020, all of our ciders are wild fermented. Visit our About page for more information.
