About
Paul Stephens started Newton Court Cidery back in 2000. His mum and dad still come over most days to help out with the lambing and whatever else needs fixing...

Newton Court Cider is part of an 157 acre certified organic farm with 30 acres of cider apple and perry pear orchards. We are proud to make award winning ciders and Perries using fruit from our own orchards or from friends in Herefordshire. We pick, press, ferment and bottle everything ourselves.

For us, craft cider means cider that's pressed at our farm by a master cider maker named Paul (and a few of his local friends). It means making cider out of proper apples. It means a cidery surrounded by orchards, not industrial equipment. It means people covered in mud and apple peels, not people in suits. Buying craft cider supports local business, the heritage and the countryside (find out more about on our environment page). But most of all, craft cider tastes much, much better.

Autumn Harvest Perry (Bottle) from Newton Court Cider
12 years ago
6.3/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6
1 litre bottle from Newton Court farm. Pours pale to clear, with an orchard / fermenting barrel aroma. Very faint perry pears coming through in the taste but persevere and you do get a fleeting glimpse of apple-like juiciness, although all too brief. The end result though is a fairly bland, inoffensive ’table’ perry that fails to leave much of a mark.

7.4/10 — Appearance 10 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Bottle from The Hop Pocket, Bishops Frome, Herefordshire, July 2013. Consumed at home Monday 26th August 2013 Pours gold, looks superb absolutely sparkling perfect clarity, medium carbonation. Aroma is fresh and also with soft gently stewing apples. Taste is on the sweeter side of Med/Dry (it is described as Med/Dry) but really nice. I haven’t had a Newtons cider for a little whileand often found them to begood but a bit challenging at times, this on the other hand would easily convert anyone more used to bigger brands as it the rough edgesare very much ironed away here. Sweet juicy apples, lacks a little crispnes and whilst there is some tartness and dryness around the gums, it could have been just a little drier for me. A7 A5 T7 P4 Ov13 3.6

500ml bottle from Ludlow Square Deli. Pours a clear Chardonnay colour, fruity, fairly juicy with good carbonation. Definitely emanates a woody orchard feel, super dry with a welcoming apple aroma as you tip the glass for another sip. Not bad at all.
