A blend of apple distillate and fresh pressed Yarlington Mill juice aged in barrel.
After only 12 months in a half barrel, previously occupied by a smokin highland whisky and supplied by the now sadly closed, John the Barrelman. This beautiful blend of lovingly distilled (by Shaun at Ludlow Distillery) Foxwhelp cider, tart and fragrant apples from our home orchard (which did not make The Power and The Glory cut) and fresh pressed Yarlington Mill juice, from apples picked and ferried by the indefatigable Robin Salmon just over the border in Worcestershire, is GRIST FOR THE MILL.
A noble cider and homage to many a glorious pommeau.
At 19% abv this vivid, dark, rich, unctuous apple distillate is appley, tangy, woody and so tasty.
