About
Our mission is simple: Fly high and make the best cider we possibly can. You can find us in an old apple store on an orchard in Sussex.

All of the apples that go into our ciders have been rejected by supermarkets for not fitting their beauty standards. We’re not that shallow. We take these tasty fruits and help them reach their full potential in our delicious ciders.

Note - Ringden Farm is the production site for pressing and bottling. The office administration address is in Polegate.

Cask at Pint Shop. Cloudy reddish color, bright white bubbles. Fruity cherry more than apple aroma. Apple and cherry swap positions in the taste, light tartness but a lightly sweet edge. Like apple pie and cherry cobbler having sex

2 litre milk jug from Middle Farm. This is an absolute dream boat of a cider. EXTRAORIDNARILY easy to drink. Like apple juice but still with that cider edge. Almost melon taste at times. Feels so genuine. Could drink by the gallon and probably will.
