Description
My name is Craig, together with my wife Karen and my brother Chris, we have been making cider for years for friends and family, all from apples grown locally around the historic orchard county of Armagh. In 2008 I decided to take a big step and become an artisan cider maker, bringing our handcrafted Armagh cider to the public in the form of Toby's Handcrafted Cider.
