International Brewing Award for Thatchers Cider

International Brewing Award for Thatchers Cider

Congratulations to Thatchers Cider for winning the 2013 brewing award for their 2011 ‘Vintage’ cider. Martin Thatcher was photographed in the historic oak vat room.

Thatchers Cider Wassail 2013

Thatchers Cider Wassail turned out to me a memorial night partly due the heavy snow full on the morning of the event and freezing temperatures. It’s always a challenge to film the event, always taking place in the dark with little lighting but the D800 performed excellently. Always a fun evening mainly due to the delicious and very welcome warm cider that was being served inside the marquee, including one speciality cider cider flavored with rum and another flavored with orange juice. A fantastic evening as usual ! Click on link below to view the film

Come and try some of our fantastic apple juice at the Dickensian Christmas Fair this friday evening. The apples were picked in and around Wrington and pressed outside the Plough during the Wrington apple weekend in Oct
It’s fresh, pure, fruity and very tasty ! ( bit like me :-)
Here is our new logo (lovely painting by Julie Kingcott). We’ll also be selling apple cake, cider and other arty things so come and say hello, it’ll be great to see you all. Profits from the sell of the juice will help fund next years event.

The Cider has been maturing for a year after and has rich spicy/apple aroma, sweetened slightly to bring out the rich autumnal flavour’s . The apples were picked during a community picking day, again using apples that would normally go to waste. Come and try some at the Dickensian fair
