Our Top 5 Spring Moments
Spring Recap: Growth, Change, and Celebration
With summer now in full swing, it feels like the perfect time to pause and reflect on the season just passed. Spring brought fresh energy, exciting milestones, and moments worth celebrating here at the cidery. Here are some of our favourite highlights.
Our newly revamped signature range
#1 Rebranding
To celebrate our 10-year anniversary, we gave our signature range a fresh new look. While the recipes remain unchanged, the names and packaging now better reflect the spirit of our orchards and the character of our ciders. Each animal character draws inspiration from a rare apple variety now growing in our orchard, creating a whimsical and meaningful connection from tree to bottle.
#2 Ocado Cider Festival
We were part of the Ocado Cider Festival, a vibrant celebration of all things cider as the summer season begins. This festival highlights a handpicked selection of cider brands, each bringing something special to the table, all with some fantastic offers to enjoy. We were in great company, sharing the spotlight with favourites like Inch's, Thatchers, and Westons.
Even more exciting, our brand-new look has officially launched on Ocado. Our whimsical wildlife are already making themselves at home in their new habitat.

#3 BREW//LDN
We had an amazing time showcasing our refreshed ciders at London’s biggest craft drinks festival 10th - 12th April. BREW//LDN is a lively showcase of the craft drinks world, bringing together cutting-edge brewers, distillers, and makers with their freshest and most exciting creations. It’s the go-to event for exploring unique flavours, inventive blends, and the stories behind each sip.
It was wonderful working alongside fellow small businesses who share our passion for quality and craft. We also met some incredible cider lovers, and even converted a few beer fans along the way!
Chris Beaver, Head of Sales
#4 Expanding our Team
Spring also brought new energy to our team. In April, we welcomed Chris as our Head of Sales, and he’s already made a big impact. Chris brings a wealth of experience from respected names like Aspall Cyder, Lion, and Brewgooder, and we’re thrilled to have him on board.
Chris has settled in seamlessly and has quickly become a natural fit within the team. Very much a 'Peacemaker' with his sharp wit and easygoing nature, Chris always keeps things calm, focused, and fun!

#5 Planting Our Orchard
Thanks to the success of our Taproom Green Energy Project fundraising round, we’ve planted over a dozen new apple trees. The first blossoms are in, and we're excited to see the biodiversity they’ll support. Whilst the trees won't bear fruit for 5 years, the recipes they’ll help us create will certainly be worth the wait.
