Awards

At Llanblethian Orchards we feel greatly humbled by the many awards we have won over the years for our ciders and perries.

As a small scale producer the recognition the awards gives us means the world to us.

It also more than makes up for the freezing rainy days in the Autumn picking apples in the mud!

First award we ever won! A mixture of Potato Pear and Hendre Huffcap, chosen by Arfur 🙂

The first of several awards for Blakeney Red.

Blakeney Red again. Was very spicey this year as I recall.

Picked from Rockfield Orchard near Rockfield Studios 🙂

May Day Sweet Cider!

This one was spelt correctly, I swear they don’t read the product labels!

Blew my mind when I was told I had won this at the GWBCF.

Pick and Mix Perry again.

Orchard Blend was originally code for the ends of barrels blended together. When it first won I had to make a real blend for it!

Glamorgan Perry here.

Glamorgan perry is on a roll here 🙂

First time my standard pub cider Sunshine won an award. Wasn’t even a special blend for the championship, this is just the usual pub blend 🙂

This cider was matured in two small oak barrels I received for my 30th Birthday.

Pixie’s Pear’s first award!

As I recall this Sparkling Perry was made from fruit all sourced from Llanblethian Orchard.

3 Times baby!

More of the 2017 Sparkling Perry.

First time i’ve won something from CAMRA for my perry. One day they may even be able to spell my company name 😉

I even got a cup!

Glamorgan perry again.

Pixie’s Pear’s second award.
