Apple County Cider
Our cider is made on Whitehouse Farm near Skenfrith in Monmouthshire. This lush county is nestled between the Brecon Beacons National Park and the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Made from 100% juice, often from unique Welsh perry pear and cider apple varieties that produces a local, artisan perry or cider with individual characteristics and flavours that are lost in mass produced equivalents.
Troggi
​
Troggi specialises in whole juice dry cider and perry and is developing bottle conditioned products.
Ty-Bryn Cider
Perry and apple juice is produced at Upper House Farm, Grosmont located in north Monmouthshire. We are a working farm that has been farmed by three generations of the Watkins family. The cider is produced from apples grown in our old fashioned traditional grazed orchards. Our cider is made from a blend of varieties, some old like Tom Putt and some more modern varieties like Dabinett. All of our cider is pressed on our working farm where it is left to mature in traditional oak barrels, and stored in a stone cellar which was built in the 1700's for storing cider

North Wales
Dee Ciders
Our goal is to produce the highest quality pure juice cider and perry possible. Several years of hard work has been needed to bring both abandoned orchards and newly planted ones to life.
We believe that a cider and perry from a North Wales producer should be made from the fruit of that region. Picked and processed by hand with care at every stage of the process to ensure our products are the best they can be.
All of our cider and perry is made from pure juice, no water or concentrates are added. This results in slight variations from year to year as no two summers are the same. This is how we like it.
Mid Wales
​All our Borderland Ciders are made using traditional cider making equipment and contain only apples from the orchards and gardens of the residents of Newtown and the upper Severn valley. Having their own unique tastes and containing only natural sugars, they are all produced without the need for any artificial preservatives, flavourings, sweeteners or sulphites: just Welsh Borderland Beauty.
Brecon Beacons Cider
An award-winning traditional cider and perry maker based in Bwlch, a village in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Most of our cider is made from vintage-quality, hand-picked cider apples from two local, pesticide-free orchards situated within a ten-mile radius of the village.
Old Monty
Using traditional methods, pure apple juice and natural fermentation means that flavour and alcohol levels will vary season to season according to apple varieties and sugar content. We can however assure the quality of every cider we produce irrespective of individual characteristics, and we firmly believe that these delicate variations in character are what makes small scale cider production so interesting.

Brooksgrove Farm
​
At Brooksgrove Farm we craft our Pembrokeshire farmhouse cider and perry using 100% pure juice and traditional methods. The Process It all begins with carefully selected cider apples and perry pears picked from the orchards at their peak ripeness. After harvesting the fruit, we wash and grade it before milling and pressing. We typically press the fruit for our apple cider straight away, while the perry pears are macerated for 24 hours. Once pressed, we store each single variety of juice in separate tanks for the fermentation to begin. Using this single variety pressing method enables us to blend our cider and perry to create unique flavours. We can also keep a single variety when we have a particularly good vintage. Throughout winter, we carefully monitor the juice as it ferments at its own natural pace with minimal intervention from us. Around springtime, we’ll start planning what to do with the cider and perry. This might be blending, keeping a single variety or further conditioning, each year is different. We will then bottle in small batches ready to enjoy. The Orchards Our craft cider journey began in 2010 when we drafted plans to plant orchards at Brooksgrove Farm. We selected varieties of trees not only for the quality of their juice but also for their ability to thrive in the Pembrokeshire climate. Having our own fruit trees means we can carefully and consistently blend our Pembrokeshire cider and perry or produce a single variety. There are now several acres of trees in our sustainable, pesticide free orchards. These include traditional cider apples, perry pears and Welsh heritage varieties that have grown in Wales for centuries.
SEIDR Y MYNYDD
This special cider is made using the traditional method of Keeving, where the taste of apple is preserved in a tasty sweet Cider, which is light and fairly low in alcohol (between 3 a 4%). This method is used in Brittany to make 'Cidre Bouché', and although it was popular in Britain until about a century ago, by today it has almost died out. However, it has recently experienced a resurgence here, and Seidr y Mynydd is at the forefront
Gethin's Cyder
Unlike many commercial cider makers, we believe the best ciders are made from the juice, the whole juice and nothing but the juice, so that’s why our products contain no added water, artificial sweeteners, colours or flavourings.
We think that this fact along with the use of unique Pembrokeshire apple varieties has led us to a string of national awards over the years. We don’t have an eyesore of a factory, but a modest cyder barn in the beautiful Pembrokeshire countryside.
Seidr Ci Ddu
Award winning small batch artisan cider maker, based in beautiful Solva, West Wales.
We collect and press mostly unwanted apples and pears from Pembrokeshire and the Welsh Borders, before fermenting 100% whole juice using traditional methods, together with some science shamelessly borrowed from the wine industry, to produce ciders and perries of the finest quality and taste
