A delicious dry cider made with fruit from a 90 year old orchard. Naturally sparkling, this cider has been disgorged à la volée. In using this ancient French technique, used in champagne making, we are able to remove the sediment from the bottle. The work is all done by hand and is slow, labour intensive and highly skilled but is preferable to us in terms of retaining flavour than the more industrial process of filtering.

Hints of orange rind with a twist of smoke makes this cider pair beautifully with salty, hard cheeses.

High and safe in the branches of an old apple tree sits more than fruit. Their jewel bright wings fanning nervous cocked heads in automaton movement, the orchard flock sits dappled in the lush greens of a thousand leaves. Offering natural pest control in exchange for a share of the fruit, who could possibly refuse this beautiful army?

Dunnocks, jays, blackbirds, wrens, woodpeckers, fieldfares and goldfinches are all common sights in the unsprayed traditional standard orchards from which we harvest our fruit but sadly it’s not the case in every orchard. Continued use of pesticides will condemn these creatures to history unless we act.

The cider in this bottle came from a truly wild place, by drinking it you are supporting us in our mission to protect these orchards.

Does the cider have a use by date?

Unopened and stored in a cool, dry place our cider will be good to drink for around three years  As a general rule, like wine, cider has excellent capacity for ageing.

If the cider has been opened we recommend sealing with a champagne stopper and storing in the fridge for no more than 24 hours.

Is the cider vegan friendly?

Yes, our only ingredient is apples!

Is the cider organic?

We only use organically grown, unsprayed apples in our cider. Due to the number of orchards we care for belonging to other people we are not able to offically certify ourselves organic at this point in time.

Does the cider contain sulphites?

Our cider does not contain sulphites, however our perries contain a trace amount.
