Description
We are multi award winning artisan cider and perry makers.
We make whole juice draught and bottled ciders and perry using locally grown apples and pears.
Since 1956 we have been making cider at our family home and now cider mill. Set within 4 acres of heritage orchards and established gardens, we are situated on the banks of the River Severn in Awre, the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire.
We are continuing to plant cider apple and perry pear trees at our new orchards in Blakeney, home of the famous Blakeney Red Perry pear.

Bottle at home, 5.8%. Clear golden with soft fizzy short lasting head. Quite some barnyard, light sweet apple, soft earthy, a touch of mold, dead leaves, dry pears, mineral, apple peel. Just medium sweet, light bitter and tart. Almost medium bodied with sparkling carbonation and medium dry finish. Quite decent.

500ml bottle from Gloucester Services. Pours clear gold, aroma suggests a good tannic character. Taste is indeed highly tannic, with a sharp acidity typical of Severns usual output. Nice fleshy fruit, bright and flavoursome.

500ml bottle (5.2%) from Gloucester Services Farm Shop. Pours clear gold, aroma has light floral perfumed perry pear fruit. Taste continues in a similar fashion, some light tannins, gentle sour with a floral perfumed sweetness, tightening tannic finish, not so sharp, fairly easy-going. Nice summery perry.
