A case in homage to the release of The Salt Path film this month, based on Raynor Winn’s best selling book. The story follows Moth and Ray as they struggle round the South West coast path, embracing life’s challenges.
This month we’ve pulled together a case from cideries they will have walked past, or close to on their epic journey. Much like the varying terrain and weather they encountered, here we showcase a range of craft cider from the coastal fringes of the South West – with ciders from Devon, Cornwall and Dorset. Quite the adventure, read on for a taste of what's to come:
Haywood Farm Medium – 5%, St Mabyn, Cornwall
Tom has been producing cider from 20 acres of Haywood’s own orchards near Wadebridge for over 20 years now. This delicious Medium is really what West Country cider is all about!
Padstow Brewing Co ‘Sunshine’ – 6.5%, Medium, Padstow, Cornwall
A collaboration between Polgoon Vineyards down near Penzance, and Padstow Brewing, this delicious crisp, refreshing and light cider is made from dessert apples and Bramley
Touchwood Cider Medium Dry – 5.5%, St Agnes, Cornwall
This Medium Dry is a classic tannic cider, rarely seen outside of local markets, so we are delighted to be able to offer this one across the country.
Bollhayes Wild Coast Cider ‘Big Sky’ – 5%, Medium Dry, Brixham, Devon
Big Sky’ is the perfect Medium Dry summer cider, easy drinking and perfect chilled.
Hunts Cider ‘ Whitley Blue’ – 4.8%, Medium, Paignton Devon
A brand new limited edition cider, ‘Whitley Blue’ pays homage to Paignton Zoo’s founder, Herbert Whitley, whose family originally owned much of the land that Hunts Farm sits on today.
Purbeck Cider ‘Purbeck Gold’ – 4.8%, Medium Sweet, Purbeck, Dorset
Nearing the end of the Coast Path now at Poole, the last of our ciders comes from those lovely folks at Purbeck. Makers of ice cream and cider, both on the same farm, Joe has perfected his cider making over almost 20 years.
