Westons Caple Road Cider Blend No. 3 Can 12 Pack

Product Information

We are a rural business, with values deeply rooted in the Three Counties of Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire. All of the cider apples and perry pears that go into a Westons Cider product come from a 50-mile radius of the cider mill. The fruit is cared for by our local growers, some of which, we have been working with for many generations Weston’s’ Caple Rd Cider took out the best new world cider at the Australian Cider Awards. New world is an interesting category for this cider. When I think new world cider, I think of the big acids from Pink Ladies, Granny Smiths and Galas made in “the colonies” Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US. I think light, bright and fizzy ciders suited to a hot climate and food pairings. When I think old world ciders, I think about the ciders made in the same way for hundreds of years in France, Spain and the UK. Famed for their heavier, dank flavours from bittersweet and bitter sharp apples. At the recent Australian Cider Awards the Weston’s Caple Rd took out the best new world cider. It must have had a good chill on it. Product Walk ahead with the hedge on your right (and some more great views of the Malvern Hills) for about 100m.

It breaks a few traditions for Weston’s, this is their first canned cider and first from any of the UK big players.
