Traditionally a wine region, the Hunter Valley has influenced our Cider range to give it a wine-making twist. Over 8 years ago, we started dabbling with cider and produced our Classic Draught Cider, a pretty traditional Apple Cider. Since then our range has grown and so have the flavours, and we don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
