Description
It’s too easy to let life become predictable and settle for the ordinary. Luckily though, Orchard Pig is no ordinary cider. It all began in a Somerset shed, surrounded by the best West Country apple trees and free roaming Old Spot pigs. But, whilst every orchard has apples, not every orchard has Old Spot pigs. We believe our free-spirited attitude is the magic ingredient which makes every pint of Orchard Pig taste so refreshingly different to all the rest. Not your average apples, not your average pig. Orchard Pig. It’s a rare breed.

Bag in a box at Bree Louise. Pours a clear gold with no head whatsoever. Aroma is full of sweet apples with a hint of underlying roast. Flavor begins with more of a tart apple that lasts throughout and has a bit of sweetness and earthiness.
