OUR APPLES

Our five-acre orchard lies on a gentle east-facing slope between the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors, a landscape that shapes both the fruit and the character of our ciders.

Planted from an empty field, it is now home to around 600 trees, managed with a light touch to encourage a thriving natural ecosystem. Free from pesticides and herbicides, the orchard supports a rich diversity of life - from wildflowers and insects to hedgehogs, small mammals, and nesting birds, including a resident pair of buzzards overhead.

We grow over 20 apple varieties, bringing together traditional cider apples with historic northern cultivars such as Ribston Pippin and Keswick Codlin. Each is hand-picked in autumn at peak ripeness, capturing the full depth of flavour and aroma from the season.

Alongside our own fruit, we work closely with local orchards and growers, allowing us to broaden our blends while staying rooted in the character of the region.
