We’ve been very excited about this years harvest of cider apples and perry pears across the UK.

We’ve been lucky with such a dry start to the autumn. It’s our favourite time of year and it has generally been a beautiful, dry autumn, with warm days to keep the fruit pickers happy this year!

From the cider makers I have spoken to, generally the crop yield is down, with sugar levels up due to dry weather end of summer we had in cider land.

You can all get a glimpse of the cidermaker’s year by following our friends on twitter.
