Leicestershire. It is a small concern started by Damian Doherty and Andrew Hambleton, two people with a passion for cider. Their aim has always been to produce a cider in the most natural way possible. The cider is naturally fermented with the wild yeast on the fruit, and always made from 100% freshly pressed apples with no added sugars or water.
