Description
The Garden Cider Company was created in 2010 by Ben and Will Filby The idea is simple, we make a range of hand crafted premium ciders sourced entirely from local, donated garden apples.

Each year we have over 4000 local households who bring us their spare garden fruit and in return receive a share of the cider made back for free. We are proud to take an abundant, largely wasted natural resource and turn it into sustainable, ethical and quality products.

Bag in a box from the Punt Yard, Cambridge. Yellow and clear. Pretty flat as well. Sharp odour with apple skin and a touch of soap. Sweet/sour taste which showcases the plum and ginger notes. Refreshing sourness in the finish but the aftertaste is sweet and laden with orchard fruit. The ginger reasserts but gently. Oily texture to the body. Pretty good.

(Bottle) Pours clear pinkish golden with no head. Fantastic aroma of raspberry with apple hints. Medium body with excellent carbonation. Lovely taste of apple and raspberry. A tiny bit sweet for my taste, but very nice.
