Description
Here at Green Man Cider we believe in doing things properly. Our cider is made only from top quality apples carefully sourced from orchards in Somerset and North Devon. Our apples are selected from traditional sweet, bittersweet, bittersharp, and sharp varieties and given time to ferment slowly to ensure a great balance of flavour and the kind of depth and complexity that you just won't find in factory "cider". Always 100% juice, made with love.
