Description
Welcome to Healeys! We mix apples and imagination to make delicious food and drink. Deep in the heart of the Cornish countryside, we’re a family-run farm that’s been lovingly making award-winning cyders, wines, spirits, juices, preserves, and sauces for nearly 40 years. Since planting our first trees in 1986, we've grown to become the largest independent cyder-maker in Cornwall and the first distillery for 300 years. Family owned and Cornish born and bred. Whether it’s getting to the core of great flavour or thinking outside the box, we know what it takes to make apples special. And we love welcoming visitors to the farm to discover our Healeys charm themselves.

Bottle shared in Canary Wharf - cheers to scopey. Pours clear, pale yellow with a few bubbles on top. The nose holds ripening apples, golden delicious especially. Medium sweet flavour with low bitterness, simple sugars, more golden delicious, mild musty notes. Medium bodied, lightly oily, with soft carbonation. Sweet finish, some apple sauce. Fun stuff.

The taste is soft, sweet, mellow apple, apple pie, pear, vanilla, honey, wood, icing sugar, hint of tannin with a soft, sweet finish. Medium body and a hint of carbonation. A bit sweeter than I like my ciders to be honest. It’s ok.
