A touch of pre-pressing, baskets-of-pears-on-pickup wrangling. Now we're pressing Blakeney Red pears. The next ones to harvest will be Hendre Huffcap, and then it's on to the apples! 😮

Beautiful Court Royal apples from this morning's dog walk through Lulu's orchard. The Court Royal trees are doing really well and don't the apples look gorgeous?

Following on from the last video, here the Thorn perry pears are being pressed. We build the next cheese while the current one is pressing. Wasps are always very interested in the pears!

We've picked up all of the Thorn perry pears and 2026's pressing has commenced. Here Paul is making a Thorn 'cheese' (at 2x speed). Once all the cheeses have been built, it's ready to be pressed. #perrypearpressing #pressingpears #thornperry #dorsetperry

2026 perry pear harvest has begun! We've picked up all of the Thorn and yesterday we moved on to picking Hellen's Early. The start of a very long harvesting road! Today, pressing has begun - pressing the Thorn perry pears. 🍐

The grass might be brown, the ground might be hard, but despite having virtually zero rain all summer, our perry pears are looking fabulous. Miraculous! 🎉 We're looking forward to harvesting these beauties very soon. Pear varieties in the photos are Blakeney Red and Winnal's Longdon.

NEW! Morgan Sweet 2025 7.4% Tiny batch: 218 bottles! Our first Morgan Sweet and we're very impressed with the apple and the resulting cider. A sparkling, dry cider that's a bright yellow/gold. Even with a low-tannin apple, we've managed to make a fairly tannic cider! It's a mystery to us too. 🙃

We have had a very quiet two weeks. Please come in and support us. If we don’t get the custom, we don’t sell the beer and it goes down the drain - a complete waste. Hopefully we will see you this week! Today we are cash only. The only card you need to bring with you is a loyalty card. 👍

Thank you to the organisers of #BritishCiderChampionships at Royal Bath & West Show for inviting Paul to judge the Keeved Cider class, with Ben of Dinnington Cider Press. Paul really enjoyed tasting many interesting keeved ciders, but he didn't take any photos of the day 😮 Congrats to the winners!

Case in point.... I love Yarlington Mill, but again as an aged one, this is beyond exceptional. I'd recommend everyone buy your bottles and lay them down for a couple of years!

Filling gaps in our perry pear orchard. These are 2-year-old Eyewood trees, the graftwood was from an ancient pear tree in a nearby cider orchard. A healthy tree and regular cropper, the perry keeves and is easy drinking. With 60 trees to plant, mostly Eyewood, is this the future of Dorset perry? 😉

Emergency bottling! Apple picking and pressing were put on hold today as we'd sold out of 500ml bottles of Whisky Barrel Aged cider. 😮 It is such a popular cider at this time of year, so we had to get this bottling done. It made a pleasant change to take photos of something other than fruit too. 😉

This is the first harvest that we've had enough fruit on the Black Dabinett to make a sv pressing worthwhile. 🍎 These are from trees we planted around the biggest pond on the farm. (We have created a lot of ponds - this is Dorset, after all!) Maisie isn't as impressed as she should be. 🐶

Our favourite apple variety: Yarlington Mill. The apples are generally smaller this year, and not producing so much juice - presumably due to the long hot summer. The taste is wonderful though, and that's what matters.

Crates of Yarlington Mill apples we harvested by hand in a local orchard.
