Now we buy apples by the tonne and we ferment in stainless steel vats. But not much else has changed.
We still only use local apples and – when it’s time to press and to bottle – our friends and family still gather to lend a hand.

Cask at the Cock Tavern - Hackney. Pours clear yellow-gold with a thin smattering of white head. Nice aroma, some over-ripe and even mildly rotten apple, a little honey, biscuits, some musty peel. Light to medium sweet flavour with pleasant acidity, some sweat, sugary apples, some farmyard. Light bodiednwith spritzy carbonation. Bucket balanced finish, with a little funky aspect, more tart apples, moderate sugars, balancing acidity. Very nice,
