Kingston Black

The Kingston Black cider apple arose in Somerset in the late 19th century and produces here a cider that is classic in appearance, taste and strength. It is copper coloured, rounded, almost velvety in texture and is full of flavour. The Hecks family have been making traditional farmhouse cider in Somerset for six generations, since 1841. In 1896, they started to sell their cider from the farm shop in Street. They make their cider by blending juice from apples all grown locally in the farm’s orchards.
