The Newt in Somerset No. 1 Kingston Black Cyder
With its bold flavours and good balance of acidity, tannins and effervescence, our No.1 Kingston Black is a great all-rounder.
Locally harvested Kingston Black apples from the Dorset village of Melpash are freshly pressed in their cyder cellar in late October. The juice is then cold fermented and matured in the cellar for 6 months until the cyder is just off dry, before bottling. This year's vintage is lighter in colour, with aromas of quince, candy and lemon. A perfect balance of acidity, light tannin and dryness makes it the perfect balance cleanser to be enjoyed with any meal or on its own.

Ratings & Awards,
The Vineyard
The bittersharp Kingston Black is a legendary Somerset variety, often referred to as ‘the king of cyder apples’. Ours are harvested from an orchard just over the border in the Dorset village of Melpash. We press the apples in late October, then slowly cold-ferment the juice in our
cellar, allowing the cyder to mature before carbonating it as it's bottled.
