It's easy drinking, sunshine in a bottle and will turn even the most ardent cider hater into a devout orchard evangelist! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLots of the apples in this cider came from a beautiful 40 year old north facing orchard called Woodlands. Located on a organically certified farm, this orchard is everything an orchard should be.  Teeming with bird life, moths and small mammals it truly is a joy to spend time in. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0596\/1318\/4169\/files\/urchin_25_stats.jpg?v=1786966614\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003eFood pairing suggestions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright and naturally sparkling, this medium cider has notes of honey and melon tempered by gentle astringency.

Before their current name was popularised in the 16th century, these spiny friends were known as urchins. Earlier still, medieval scholars believed that hedgehogs were able to collect apples by spearing the fruit with their spines and storing it away to stave off hunger in the lean months. Oh, to have an apple picking hedgehog army!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003eVital statistics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.6% Vol.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitratable acidity: 3.2g\/l\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResidual (natural) sugar: 29g\/l\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e75cl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium, perlant, unfiltered, unpasteurised, wild fermented, pure juice, natural cider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngredients: Apples (Kingston Black, Yarlington Mill, Sweet Coppin, Chisel Jersey) hand-picked from unsprayed  traditional standard orchards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrchard\/s: Woodlands, Jury\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed December 2025\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo added sulphites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBatch size: 567x 75cl bottles \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Crown cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff8000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow quickly will I receive my order?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eEverything is packed and shipped by us (Tom and Lydia) at the cidery and we aim to get all orders out within two days of purchase.
