The Story So Far...
Luke makes all his cider on his family farm just outside Bath. Using only fresh pressed West Country cider apples.
The aim: To produce cider that combines the heritage and artistry of British tradition with the innovation and creativity of the craft scene.
The result: Ciders which embrace the provenance and seasonality of the apple; vintages to showcase the changing years; and blends which are bold and exciting!
The journey began out of a love of cider and a conviction that it doesn't have to be characterless and mass-produced.
Luke travelled the world to learn the art of cider-making, from the heartlands of British cider country in Hereford and Somerset to the French cideries of Normandy to the New World ciders of New Zealand and Australia. He has worked for big producers and small - and watched, listened, and learned.
Finally, armed with a deep understanding of both traditional techniques and the creativity of the new, he was ready to make the kind of cider he is passionate about.
