Bittersweet, tobacco, leather, dried plum
Six generations. One barn. Eleven hundred trees. A stubborn belief that good cider takes time, oak and silence.
From a single press in a Somerset barn to six generations of cidermakers, the story has never strayed from the orchard.

"Visit in October if you can. The press is in full song, the barn smells of apples for fifty yards in every direction, and the first sweet juice of the year is yours to drink straight from the wooden vat." — Tom Hancock, sixth generation
