Apples are collected from traditional cider orchards in and around the parish of Pilton and slowly fermented for six months in our cool Victorian cellar before bottling.
Pilton is available as a selection of bottles and also draught in kegs, see our full range here.

330ml bottle from Cat in the Glass, shared with Soph on Christmas Day. Clear gold pour. Nicely sweet, juicy with very light tannin, dry finish. Simplistic by Pilton standards, but pleasant and fruity enough.
