It is impossible to go wrong with single variety Dabinett. One of the truly great cider apples: bags of flavour, long ripening window, loves fermenting in barrels. This is a blend of two parts 2019 cider, which fermented in neutral and matured in oak, and one part 2020 cider which…
A historic variety dating from the end of 1600s, it is a light bittersharp that produces rather small apples, taking a long time to handpick! However it seems we have been rewarded as we have a cider with a delicious strawberry and raspberry flavour, light in body and easy to…
Dymock Red is a pear rather richer in history than in flavour! It seems to have been propagated at The White House in Dymock, the birthplace of John Kyrle, Man of Ross, as well as being widely grown by the Whittingtons – yes, Dick Whittington’s family. It is a gentle…
The biggest Flakey Bark yet. In the words of the world’s best perry writer, Adam Wells, Flakey Bark ‘insists itself upon you’, and a more apt description of this magnificent pear there is not. A thunderous flavour – full of glorious syrup and ripe pear, leading into complex, punchy, astringent…
Foxwhelp is the iconic Herefordshire cider apple, discovered here over four hundred years ago. Through its vibrant, strawberry fruit aroma and its bursting, zingy, acid-driven, intense flavour, Foxwhelp has inspired generation after generation of orchardist to produce great cider. Foxwhelp is an incredible portal; in drinking it we are able…
Foxwhelp is an apple of singular character. Vibrant and colour, Foxwhelp is full of intense acidity, bursts with gorgeous aroma, and delivers a huge, fruit powered flavour. So what happens if you evolve that flavour by maturing the cider in a peated oak cask? Magic. The amazing profile of the…
Gilly is a new variety – both to us and generally, bred and then propagated in the 1990s. It’s an early season light sharp, and this was our first season fermenting it. This single barrel bottling of 300 bottles has us very excited for the future. Gilly makes up 90%…
The last ever Gin Pear made from our own trees. Unfortunately we had to cut our trees down to prevent Fireblight spreading further into our orchard. This bottle is a portal to the world those trees inhabited. The last essence of their fruit, preserved here for us to enjoy now.…
The penultimate final vintage – we have one 2022 ready to release next year – but our Green Horse trees have been pollarded now, so this is a precious perry for us. 7.6% abv is super high for perry and it comes with loads and loads of flavour. 750ml.
Green Horse is a pear grown and fermented in the Three Counties region since at least 1886. A perry full of flavour, packing in beautiful stone fruit flavours of peach and nectarine alongside a zippy acidity. This vintage is a true delight with delicate floral aromas. In our fight against…
Hagloe Crab is an 18th century variety from Gloucestershire, thought lost but rediscovered, this is our second vintage from young trees. Bulmers Norman is a widely grown bittersweet apple, which softens the Hagloe’s crisp acidity. A bright palate of fresh, fruit notes – peach and nectarine shine through, with gentle…
Hagloe Crab is an old variety hailing from just a dozen miles from our farm – dated as early as the 1720s. This is the fourth vintage our young trees have given us and, in our eyes, it is by far the best yet! Hagloe produces a cider with crisp…

Named for Albert and Becky’s dog, Handsome Norman is a fruit-forward blend of varieties. Just bursting with freshness, this one is a crowd-pleaser, and an amazing showcase for just how fruity, easy and tasty dry cider should be. 750ml. 7.4%.
This Harry Masters was pressed late in the season – November – and so presents a curious tasting experience, contrasting with usual October pressed HMJ. In cider, late is often better than early, and that rings true here. A very smooth cider, with the silky texture of buttered toast rather…
Harry Masters Jersey is a powerful bittersweet apple that benefits from time. This cider combines five oak casks we fermented in 2019, spending six months in barrel before maturing for one year in a neutral container. After a long, patient wait, we opened them up to taste and knew instantly…
Hedgehog Pear, which is more widely known as Barnet, is a variety thought to originate in Gloucestershire which is notable for its russeted skin, an uncommon characteristic in perry pears. The flavour is unique as a result, with a soft texture, gentle juiciness on the palate and delightful nuttiness. Hedgehogs…
Recorded by Charles Martell as ‘one of the very best vintage pears.’ This Gloucestershire variety makes a superb perry with light and easy drinking qualities, full of pleasant pear notes that give it a smooth flavour. It is gently acidic, with subtle notes across the palate of delicious apricot marmalade.…
Improved Lambrook Pippin is a Somerset variety that makes an absolutely delicious eating apple. Ripe in mid October, it does not keep very well, so every year Albert gets eating with aplomb! This delicate cider bellies it’s 6.5% abv with an incredibly juicy aroma, hints of pineapple and a gently…
To take simple apples and transform them into magic requires an orchard, and the special moments that come when friends visit the cidery. The team from Joyce and Salthouse Bottles blended this cider together with us; Dabinett, Reinette d’Obry and Sweet Coppin, fermented in oak barrel, this has brilliant depth…
Each year in our cider barn we make over 100 different containers of cider. Each year some surprise you, offering a gorgeous flavour far beyond your hopes. This blend does exactly that; bittersharp and bittersweet apples in perfect harmony and balance. A cider with joyous fruit that we bottled young…
Bittersweet cider at its most fulsome, glorious best. Absolutely full of flavour, of weight on the palate, of ripe tannin, of orchard aromas, of gentle natural sparkle, of time and of place. This is Major, an iconic cider apple, as grown on our farm, from trees planted by our family…
An array of powerful flavours come together in an orchestra of harmonious expressions. Deep rich toffee apple, chocolate and malt, campfire and night air, melting together thanks to the majesty of time. A single variety apple made whole by barrel fermentation, extended maturation in tank and in bottle, and with…
Moorcroft is a magical and mystical pear – a variety that produces soft, fruity perries of the utmost quality. It is characterised by its early season, fast ripening habit, the pears turning to mush if you aren’t quick enough to spot when they’re ready! Work hard though and you earn…
