Silver Medal, Sydney Royal 2026!
Bold, West-Counties Style Cider. Medium Dry. Zesty and very drinkable.
Our newest release. It's a single variety cider made from the Yarlington Mill apple: a Bitter-Sweet cider variety that originated in Somerset, England in 1898. A quintessential West-Counties cider apple.
Why "Thrills"?: It was our first time focussing on this variety, our first time using two new pieces of equipment, we had a two-day power cut just when we needed cooling and when we tasted the first glass we were delighted. Such a buzz that just "Yarlington Mill" wasn't going to do it justice!
This cider is unfiltered and may contain some sediment.
These apples are hard to find. This is a small release with individually numbered bottles.
750ml. 5% ABV. Vegan. Gluten Free. From 100% fresh apples.
Full Tasting Notes:
Colour: Bright golden colour
Aroma: A fresh and tangy fruit forward cider.
Palate: The nose opens with an immediate burst of charred pineapple and overripe tangerine zest. As it breathes, the traditional "woodsy" character of the apple takes a backseat to a delicate floral note, reminiscent of orange blossom and wildflower honey. A satisfying finish.
What's a Single Variety Cider?
Most ciders blend apples from multiple varieties to achieve the cider-makers desired outcome. Single Variety ciders focus on the distinctive character of a single apple variety. This requires varieties which exhibit a good balance of aroma, sweetness and acidity. Like the wine industry, cidermakers have a little flexibility: up to 15% of the fruit can be other varieties. We've finished the cider with a little Pink Lady to keep this really smashable.
Our Kingston Black is another lovely Single Variety Cider.
Just enjoyed a bottle on Mother’s Day! Lovely flavour of the apples and fresh overall taste.
Hi Virginia, really glad you enjoyed some your Thrills on Mother's Day! It's quickly become one of our most popular vintage ciders. Thanks for taking time to write us a review. Nick
It is a good drink,possibly a little drier and more tart than Iam used to however, I have found it to be refreshing over ice on a warm afternoon.
Thanks, Gavin! A little ice goes a long way on a warm day! The Heritage Blend maybe worth a try sometime. Still in that traditional vein but a little sweeter and milder than the Yarlington Thrills. Thanks for taking the time to write a review. It really helps.
