Inspired by Newburgh’s history as an Orchard Town and the 830 year old story of local apple growing (which began with French monks in 1191), our friends at Hyrneside worked with the Woodland Trust to plant hundreds of apple trees on their farm — a careful mix of both Scottish Heritage and Classic Cider Apples.
Alleycropped with arable crops, the trees are underplanted with a permanent wildflower mix, which attracts pollinators and pest eating insects that spread throughout the crops, reducing the need for pesticides. Combined with foraged apples from the historic trees of the local parish orchards, some now wild and forgotten, the fruit was fermented over winter.
Tasting Notes: This small batch of AIPPLE 2021 is a slightly sparkling, light and refreshing cider, with mellow apple aromas, a citrus note on the taste, good balance, and a crisp, dry finish.
