CIDER MAKERS

Hairy Horse Cider Co.

Hairy Horse Cider Co.

At Hairy Horse, we craft small-batch, handcrafted ciders with bold character and honest roots. Grown on our family orchards, our apples are a careful blend of heritage cider varietals for depth, classic dessert apples for subtlety, and a touch of modern cultivars for flare - each chosen to bring balance, complexity, and charm to the glass.

By controlling every step of the process - from planting and harvesting to pressing, fermenting, aging, and bottling - we stay true to our craft and to the fruit itself. No shortcuts, no compromise - just pure expression, born from the orchard. Our ciders aren’t just delicious - they’re stories in a bottle, filled with the care, tradition, and passion that define Hairy Horse. Discover the spirit behind our creations and taste the fruits of our labour.
