A while in the making but oh so worth the wait, this month is a classic Kentish case from the orchards of the ‘Garden of England’
With three ciders from North Kent and three from The Weald, it’s a whistle stop tour of the county. The drier, warmer and sunnier climate results is a much lighter, less tannic cider - perhaps more reflective of modern and younger tastebuds as the market evolves. So, let's meet this month's makers:
Dudda’s Tun ‘Greenhorn’ – Medium 5% - Sittingbourne
A deliciously refreshing, palest golden medium cider, with prominent green fresh apple notes from Bramley apples.
Kentish Pip ‘High Diver’ – Medium Dry 4.8% - Canterbury (330ml)
‘High Diver’ is made from a blend of well known Cox and Bramley apples only, marrying fresh acidity with a bright aromatic fruit character.
Kent Cider Co ‘Yowler’ – Medium Dry 5.2% - Faversham (330ml)
A classic refreshing medium dry, more tannins than some, but with that super-refreshing mouthfeel and flavour
Nightingale’s ‘Discovery’ – Medium Still 6%, Tenterden
‘Discovery’ is a medium fruity cider with a delicate rosé blush which comes from the blending of unique red-fleshed ‘Red Love’ apples.
Turner’s Medium Dry – 4%, Marden
A classic pale lemon gold colour, made from mainly eating apples, this Medium is so lovely served fridge fresh.
Biddenden ‘SpartaRuss’ – 4% Medium Sweet, Biddenden
Made from Spartan and Russet eating apples, it’s matured for nine months in tank with American Oak Staves to enhance and develop the flavours.

How much does delivery cost?
Delivery is £5.95 for most of UK for your first case and then £2.95 for additional ones. Rather than hiding the delivery cost in the product price and offering free delivery (there’s no such thing as free delivery!) we’d rather be transparent about the cost of the product and the cost of the delivery.

I live in Bristol. Can I collect?
Unfortunately our licence doesn’t allow us to have customer collections on site so we can only take orders for delivery, sorry! Watch this space though for Summer 2024.
How can I track my order?
