Howling Moon Craft Cider

Howling Moon Craft Cider produces craft ciders using heritage apples and botanicals. Their cidery offers a variety of seasonal and barrel-aged ciders with a steampunk twist.

Howling Moon Craft Cider stands out for its dedication to traditional cider-making methods combined with modern innovation. Founded by Kate and Nik, Howling Moon started on an overgrown farm, which they transformed into a thriving orchard filled with 3,000 heritage apple trees. This family-owned cidery focuses on creating high-quality ciders using locally sourced ingredients, including fruit from neighbouring farms and honey from local apiaries.

The tasting garden at Howling Moon is open daily, offering visitors a chance to sample a range of their unique ciders. Among their popular products is the Revolution Dry Craft Cider, which is part of their original Steampunk Series. This cider, made from heritage apples, is fermented to near dryness, delivering a crisp, tannin-rich experience with a hint of smokiness.

Another notable offering is the Spiced Cherry Craft Cider, a seasonal favourite made with Lapin and Bing cherries, bourbon vanilla bean pods, and spices like cinnamon and clove. This cider is perfect for winter months, complementing holiday dishes such as baked ham and ginger snaps​.
