                                                Welcome to Churchill Ciders.
 
 
 
Spalding Scrumpy is made from 100% fresh pressed juice using locally grown apples. Most of the apples are windfalls <scrumped> and each batch may contain up to 6 or 7 different apple varieties. This can provide a different flavour with each bottle you try, something you cannot get from the mainstream producers.
Although no guarantees can be made regarding the apples being organically grown, nearly all the sites from which I collect are privately owned and to the best of my knowledge none of the trees are treated in any way, the yield not being of the utmost importance to the owners. Most of the trees are somewhat neglected therefore highly unlikely to be sprayed/treated.
 
 
Remember, no preservatives, colourants or chemicals used. No sulphites are used to kill the yeast and the cider is not filtered therefore a slight sediment may form, this is perfectly natural and is not detrimental to the flavour/taste.
  
 
 
Here is the new label I will be using this coming season. Its a watercolour of my press with a couple of tulips in the background. Spalding being famous for its tulips. The artwork was done by local artist Tony Quinton.
 
 
 
Below are the old labels that were used
 
 
 
 
 
Naturally made cider is a living product, therefore a sediment is sometimes formed. To enjoy your cider at its best, store upright, serve chilled and pour carefully.

Spalding Scrumpy and the other ciders are products of a hobby. It is a one man operation and this helps ensure each batch is given the time and care it deserves to produce a great tasting finished product.
All the apples are pressed on my own hand built manually operated wooden press.
 
Bottles are 500ml.
 
 
Delivery and collection available, please email.
 
 
 
ENJOY.
 
 
 
 
IF YOU HAVE TRIED ANY OF MY CIDERS,
I WOULD WELCOME YOUR FEEDBACK.

 
To keep the cider as natural as possible the use of additives are kept to a minimum.
No colourants, concentrates or artificial sweetners are used and the cider is not filtered, relying on good ingredients, patience and nature to do their work.
Although filtering does not involve an additive, it is still not performed because you cannot be sure you are not removing something that may be a positive contributor to the flavour of the drink. It's more about the flavour than the appearance.
 
 
 
 
 
 
I am always happy to get another source of apples in the Spalding area so if you have some I could use please e-mail me;
