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.

Calderdale Beer Festival 2017. Dryish tasting but its pear is stated enough in this cider.

330ml bottle. Pours clear gold, aroma kicks out some funky sour notes, some perry fruit. Taste is exceedingly tangy, though subsides a little, with good clarity of perry pear fruit. A touch oily on the palate with very light natural carbonation. Medium-dry with moderate sour funk. Decent perry.

330ml bottle from Ludlow Food Centre. Pours clear gold. Aroma is fairly sweet, with some Bramley apple. Taste is similarly sweet with sugary apple pie character. Despite this it’s not overly sweet, and refreshingly different to the norm.

330ml bottle. Pours clear gold. Aroma of moderately sweet apple fruit. Taste is vibrant bittersweet apple fruit, soft tannic fuzz, clear balanced, crisp apple fruit character, some green apple sweetness. Very good, enjoyable fruity cider.

Bag in the box at the Live & Let Live, Cambridge. Pale yellow, almost clear, and still. Light floral aroma with notes of pear, white wine and oak. Sweet taste with a balancing oaky dryness. Finish is drier, and there’s a tiny sour ’bite’, but the tingling pear drop sweetness still remains. Slick, flat body. A well-made and very drinkable perry.
