Tasting notes

A perfect bottle for food pairing, this is perry as we like it best- off dry and with a hint of fizz. It's our alternative to a fine white wine. 

Food pairing suggestions

Light and fruity with very gentle acidity, this pairs beautifully with another local delicacy, the creamy unpasteurised goat’s cheese made by market gardeners 100% Hay. At best now to 2030.

The story behind the cider

Named after one of our favourite artists and in celebration of the beautiful borderlands surrounding the local, wonderful, and gregarious town of Hay-on-Wye this perry is made from an unidentified variety harvested from a little orchard, not far away on the other side of the valley.

Community spirit is strong in these hills which are replete with dreamers and awash with change makers. In spite of the woes of the world, this is a place that inspires belief that anything is possible. We reckon Grayson would be right at home here.
