Healeys Traditional Cornish Scrumpy Cyder 25cl

Description

Healeys Traditional Cornish Scrumpy Cyder is a potent, authentically crafted farmhouse cider produced in the heart of rural Cornwall. Presented in a classic, compact 25cl glass bottle, this unpretentious expression captures the rugged charm of West Country cider-making heritage. Crafted from a blend of carefully selected pressings and local spring water, this still scrumpy delivers a robust punch that appeals directly to fans of honest, traditional ciders. Best served nicely chilled, this concentrated bottle makes an ideal accompaniment to a rustic ploughman’s lunch, aged cheddar, or hearty meat pies.

The aromatic profile opens with a pungent, mature bouquet of bittersweet orchard apples, damp earth, and seasoned oak casks. On the palate, this traditional scrumpy presents a full, smooth texture featuring rich flavours of stewed apples, tangy citrus peel, and faint warming brandy undertones. The tasting experience is satisfyingly crisp with a firm tannic grip, concluding with a dry, lingering finish that leaves a persistent, pleasing trail of ripe fruit and earthy oak bitterness.

Hailing from Healeys Cornish Cyder Farm near Truro, this historic family-run estate has been perfecting West Country cyder for over three decades. Famous as the home of Cornish Rattler, Healeys maintains deep roots in classic farm traditions, using age-old pressing methods to craft authentic, uncompromised ciders. By respecting time-honoured fermentation techniques and sourcing local ingredients, the producer continues to deliver celebrated Cornish spirits and ciders that honour the region’s rich agricultural legacy.
