Description
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. Weโ€™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.

Can from Middle Farm, cheers mum. This is objectively very tasty with a lovely smoothness to it. It is, however, very sweet, characterised mostly by haribo cherry flavour. I love that but it is a tad childish.
