Description

A single batch case of 2024 Turning Japanese.

This easy drinking Pyder, blends Japanese Pears from our friend Jenni in Horam with Michelin and Cabaret apples. We harvested on a wet staff day with the team at St. Piers School. Hard work but worth it for a complex acid-led drink layered with interesting woody pear tones.

Orchard Notes

Apple Appeal Donations
Each year local folk bring us their unwanted apples and swap them for cider. Tons of apples arrive at the cidery in bags and boxes ready to be washed and pressed. We rarely know what we've been given, but we know its locally grown, untreated fruit that's appreciated by the donors. Most people tell us it alleviates their guilt to bring the fruit that would otherwise have rotted on the ground and they get the added bonus of going home with bottles of finished cider!

Greenway Fruit FarmThis commercial farm near Herstmonceux has 40 acres of sandy, free draining Sussex land. The advantage of supplying locally is that fruit can be picked ripe and sold fresh, which maximizes its taste, flavour and nutritional properties. We take their unsaleable apples helping to reduce waste and close the loop.

Horam
This small private orchard on the outskirts of Horam is owned by a family with far more fruit than they need. Looking a lot like yellow apples, this orchard is home to four Kintsuke Japanese Pear trees which we like to use in our Pyder Turning Japanese.

Delivery Information

We ship orders on Tuesdays and Thursdays but please allow up to seven days for delivery once you have ordered. This is because we only work on the Bignose & Beardy part time as we have other jobs the rest of the week. Often we can get an order out quicker, but we can't guarantee it.

Deliveries must be signed for by a person aged 18 or over. Drivers operate a challenge 25 policy: if you appear under 25 you will be asked for photo ID.

If you live really nearby to us (within 3 miles) we'll deliver to you for free on orders of £20 or more. Just place your order and if your postcode qualifies, free shipping will automatically be added to your order. If you end up paying for shipping by accident we'll refund the shipping and still deliver for free. What's not to love?!

(NB if you are browsing in ‘private’ mode the free shipping automatic selection does not work)

Local customers, select the pick up option on check out to avoid paying delivery charges on this order. You can collect from the Cidery on Fridays or at other times by appointment.

We work with a neighbouring business to ship our goods (as they can get better prices than we can - being bigger than us). The shipping cost is based on the total weight of your order and is automatically calculated at checkout. We can ship most products (up to 20kg) for £10.00 to the UK. Some of our products are lighter and so cost less. It can make sense to add an item to your order to make the most of the shipping costs:
