Rory Souter founded the Cotswold Cider Company through his passion for our diverse native apple varieties and the orchard environment in which they grow. Both strike a chord with him in how we should appreciate our natural surroundings and how the goodness of the apple can deliver such rich and majestic flavours as cider does. He wants to help popularize ‘real’ cider using the very best bittersweet cider apples, whilst combining some personality, character and a little humour in the styles he produces. In honour of nature’s voodoo wizardry, converting pulped-up bittersweet sugars to dry, golden nectar – the alchemy of fermentation beguiles our senses, perfectly represented by this this dry, cloudy, tannic real cider – pure natural magic.
