Turners Cider

Turners Cider is a family business in the village of Marden, in the Weald of Kent. We make a range of craft ciders in the ‘Eastern counties’ style: that is, from only dessert and culinary apples. All our apples are grown in and around the village, in the orchards on the south-facing ridge below the Greensand Way and in the flood basin of the River Beult. Much of our fruit is grown organically. All of it brings a different characteristic. When we first made cider it was with the windfall from family and friends’ trees. We hired a scratter and a basket press and everyone gathered on a sunny Autumn morning with their bags of scrumped fruit. Now we buy apples by the tonne and we ferment in stainless steel vats. But not much else has changed. Show Less
