OLDFIELDS CIDER

When ‘The Independent’ crowns you as one of ‘the top 10 British ciders’, you know you’re onto something special. This prestigious recognition came in 2017, just four years after the first pint of Oldfields Cider was produced, and 16 years after the Thompson family planted their first cider apple orchards in the Teme Valley, Worcestershire.

The Thompsons have been farming at Oldfields since the 1960s but cider-making wasn’t on the cards until the family joined forces with the local Hobson’s Brewery. And what a partnership that proved to be with the ciders having won a range of awards from Great Taste gold stars to celebrated gongs in the International Cider Awards.

The ciders themselves are all made from picked and pressed Worcestershire apples. Modern techniques are used ­– such as stainless steel fermentation tanks ­– to ensure consistency in quality, but there is also a purity in the manufacturing process – the ciders are all natural products with no added concentrates – just plenty of natural fruity flavour.
