Ordered two 3-litre bags of cider online. They arrived late because of a courier error, which didn't really matter to me. I put them in a cool cupboard in the spare room ready for an event I'm going to this month. A couple of weeks later, I wake up to a strong cidery smell. One of the bags had burst and gone everywhere, destroying a lot of my personal belongings on the shelf below. It took me ages to clean everything. The other bag of cider was swollen badly (obviously still fermenting in the bag), so I carefully moved it and put it in a bin bag somewhere safe. Today, I saw that this one had also punctured and had filled the bin bag up (pictures). So that's £29.50 down the drain. Luckily, I also bought some Thistly Cross cider in bags, and they're fine, so I can take them to the event instead. So disappointing 😣

Their Gold Sparkling Apple Cider is the best I've tasted to date, absolutely love it! Delivery was extremely quick, came within a day (this was free local delivery). The only downside is their delivery charge for those outside the local free delivery radius is a little steep (flat rate of £8.50 at the time of writing this) compared to other breweries.

Excellent ciders and fantastic customer service.
Orderd 5 litres of the Raspberry cider and also the Toffee Apple for my son's 21st birthday party and needed them delivered by the weekend. Our delivery arrived but only one box. They delivered the other box in time for the party and even gave us a lovely bottle of the dark fruits by way of an appologie.
Both the boxed ciders were fantastic.
Will definitely order again.

Some of the best cider my husband has ever drunk. He hates the sweetened, fizzy 'pop' you buy in the shops. The fruit flavours are exceptional and we will be back for more.
We really love supporting local businesses. They delivered free to our house. Best buy local.

Bought a gift pack of 4 ciders from the Station in Richmond and all I can really say is WOW! I bought 2 raspberry and 2 rhubarb and both are absolutely amazing. If you're a fan of fruity cider then you are definitely in for a treat. The flavour is brilliant without being overpowering like you get with some artisan ciders. Both are a 'still' cider but don't let that put you off. They are both really palette able and the flavour is brilliant. I've tried a lot of ciders from all over the country and both sit in my top 5. The only thing I would personally take over either of these 2 is the Ampleforth Special Reserve but that is twice the price. If you are a true cider fan then these are definitely for you and for the price are exceptional value for money too. If these guys ever want to consider a dark Berry cider I'll be all over it too, obviously without dropping a hint there. Really good drink and definitely one that needs to be appreciated rather than just drank.
