Taking advantage of the harvest internship which Burum’s co-founder, Helen Anne Smith, spent with us in 2021, we decided to make some ciders together. In documenting the process, in words, images and video, the Burum team have created a fascinating addition to their educational programmes. We hope that the two ciders we have crafted will be a worthy complement.
When Burum Met Pomona 2021, a still cider, is the first of the pair. We took gorgeous hand-picked Dabinett apples from Brook House Farm, wild fermented them and then matured the cider in ex-Chardonnay barrels for six months before bottling.
In the end it’s become a super juicy, “peach juice and tangy orange dripping from your chin” type of cider. If you trapped it in coloured gelatine pastilles, this would be the world’s tastiest wine gums!
