Celtic Marches Beverages Ltd
Pip to Pint in 5 Miles
One of Herefordshire’s best kept secrets. Celtic Marches and PULP cider is nestled in a quiet corner of Herefordshire, a county renowned for its cider production.
Wyer Croft is home to Celtic Marches. With 200 acres of cider apple orchards, developed over eight generations, we are a self-sustaining craft cider firm producing up to 3 million litres a year. Our luscious lined orchards are filled with eight cider tree varieties. Each chosen for their growth and taste profiles, we blend these to create our delicious ciders.
Depending on the variety and season, we press 5-8 tonnes an hour and our juice yield is between 650-780 litres a tonne. A hot summer will produce high sugar/low juice whilst a wet season will deliver low sugar/high juice. A hot wet summer is always hoped for on the farm but good ol’ British weather is never easily predicted!
One of the major advantages of being a family run cider maker is the control. We have full control from pip to pint. We grow, pick, and press on site. From our 200 acres of cider apple orchards, we blend with precision. We pride ourselves on quality, provenance, and traceability as well as sustainability.
