FARMHOUSE 2024 VINTAGE – 6.5% ABV – Dry, Sparkling

FARMHOUSE BLEND 6.5% ABV 75cl
50% Yarlington Mill, Dabinett, Somerset Redstreak, Dove, Brown Snout & Cadbury Redwing

Bottle conditioned, dry cider [we never sweeten with brewing sugars, or pasteurise], naturally sparkling.

Fresh Yarlington Mill fruitiness bound up with natural, woody tannins [not oaked!] and sometimes a faint nutmeggy spice.

HARVEST NOTES
A prolonged, warm Spring and Summer in 2025 made it challenging to slow the fermentation. We normally err on the side of naturally off-dry, but this vintage has reminded us how good our ciders can be when dry! With it come more aromatics which are to be delighted in. Some post-fermentation blending was required to balance the spontaneous shift towards dryness and we bottled in May to capture some of the lovely natural fizz.
