Description
John Batcheldor (1937-2018) planted his first orchard in his garden in 1985, selecting only cider apples. He later extended into the lower field, grafting selected varieties to suit his unique west country style dry cider using an ancient Sussex single-screw press.

In 2015 the new cider barn was built. Friends Russell & David continue to produce his cider today.

@GBBF2008 (I’ve marked down as JB Medium Dry Cider, 5.5% in my notes). Yellow colour, no head. Aroma is apples. earth, vanilla, some sap and mild earthy notes. Flavour is mainly mild apples and a lot of earthy notes.
