Description
Cider done right. That means delicious West Country cider made from fresh apple juice, using the best locally-sourced apples. Founded in 2002, we are independent, family-owned and very proud to be based in the oldest working cider mill in the UK, breathing life back into the old building. Our home in the heart of Devon is the perfect micro-climate to grow cider apples and we are blessed with some of the finest bittersweet apple orchards in the world. We press and ferment whole juice from the finest locally sourced fruit, never from concentrate. No artificial flavours or aromas, simply the best natural ingredients, and then let it age to perfection. No shortcuts. The result? Delicious, beautifully balanced and naturally refreshing cider.

Sampled from bottle @ Danish Ratebeer Gathering Ulfborg 2016, Day 1. Clear pale golden color, small white lacing. Aroma is quite chemical. Tastes is quite sweet, I guess there could be a hint of strawberry in there, but it’s qquite artificial and sugary. Meh, drinkable I guess if you like the sweet ciders.
