Cider making at full cry

Its been a very patchy year for apple yeilds in our orchards this year. The wet summer has been a nightmare for scab, which has rendered certain varieties a total write off. There are some noble exceptions however - we are doffing our caps to Coleman's seedling this year, along with Yarlington and Sops in Wine; all of whom (for us at least) have done very well. Which is a rather good job.

Fame at last! Paul O'Grady show chooses us!

We are very flattered, if a little nervous to have been invited onto the Paul O'Grady show this monday 19th October. I will be trying to show Paul how proper cider is made - but I've got a fairly good idea that things may not go exactly as planned!
So off I trot to london to play the fool. Watch this space...

The drought is over!

We're pleased to announce the return of our full strength vintage cider! We only make a small amount each year, and last year we sold out in record time - this year there is a little more about, but still limited. Despite the obvious demand for our 2007 vintage, we only every release it when it has matured to the right level - but the wait is now over - so tuck in!

EXETER (la la la)

We are happy to announce that we are now trading at the Farmer's Market in Exeter. On the cross roads between North and South street, High street and Fore street we will be plying our many drinks both hard and soft. Come visit, come by, and come again and again!

Mud Devon Show!

What a stroke of meteorological luck, the only half reasonable day of weather this July fell squarely on the Mid Devon Show. We were in the Farmers Market marquee, and had a great day, we met many of our regular customers, and introduced many more to our tasty treats.
We even got a prize! Third best looking stall in the farmers market marquee (not sure if we'll be putting that on the bottles)...
