Description

A single batch case of 2022 Cheeky Mick.

A classic example of our cider made from a mix of Spartan and unknown eating apples collected on a picking day with friends at Mick Scrace’s orchard, along with a dash of Dabinet from Quarry Farm.

We pressed Mick's apples the following day adding some of the Dabinet juice as we went and then left it to wild ferment and then mature for over a year.

It is an easy drinker, light and crisply acidic with no edges and a long soft finish. Perfect for a warm summer evening with friends.

Orchard Notes

Rocks Lane, High Hurstwood
Our friend Mick bought an orchard by mistake. Out walking his dog one day, his footpath took him across a field being used as a builders yard. On meeting the builder he discovered the field was for sale and made an offer right there. A little further down the line he learned that the mass of brambles at the bottom of the field hid an old orchard untouched for 25 years. 3000 trees were waiting to be rediscovered pruned hard and brought back to life.

We visit this orchard every year on one of our picking days. there is loads of room for families and well behaved dogs and plenty of apples for all.

Quarry Farm, near Battle
The cider fruit used in this batch come from Sussex's only commercial grower of cider apples, Quarry Fram. Most of the fruit used to get sent to the west country but we now turn up to pick in the Autumn so some at least stays local - adding rich tannin depth and a long finish to our ciders. They have a farm shop with an excellent cafe, if you happen to be visiting nearby Bodium Castle.

Delivery Information

We ship orders on Tuesdays and Thursdays but please allow up to seven days for delivery once you have ordered. This is because we only work on the Bignose & Beardy part time as we have other jobs the rest of the week. Often we can get an order out quicker, but we can't guarantee it.

Deliveries must be signed for by a person aged 18 or over. Drivers operate a challenge 25 policy: if you appear under 25 you will be asked for photo ID.

If you live really nearby to us in postcode areas (TN22 1,2,4,5) we'll deliver to you for free. Just place your order and if your postcode qualifies free shipping will automatically be added to your order. If you end up paying for shipping by accident we'll refund the shipping and still deliver for free. What's not to love?!

Local customers, select the pick up option on check out to avoid paying delivery charges on this order. You can collect from the Cidery on Fridays or at other times by appointment.

We work with a neighbouring business to ship our goods (as they can get better prices than we can - being bigger than us). The shipping cost is based on the total weight of your order and is automatically calculated at checkout. We can ship most products (up to 20kg) for £10.00 to the UK. Some of our products are lighter and so cost less. It can make sense to add an item to your order to make the most of the shipping costs:
