Independent family-owned cider makers, since 1880.

About us

Independently minded and independently made, Westons Cider was founded in 1880 by the original Henry Weston. Roll forward to today, Westons Cider produces a portfolio of leading cider brands including Henry Westons & Stowford Press and has many awards across its portfolio. As a family-owned business, we do things our own way. Not the quick way, not the easy way but the right way and that takes time. It's what makes us as refreshingly real as our cider. So much more in every drop.

    The Westons Cider mill is open for harvest 2024! The regions apple orchards are full with beautiful varieties of traditional cider apples and perry pears. Some are just about reaching their peak ripeness and will naturally start to drop from the branches, signalling the time to pick and shake the trees. We source all our fruit from the three counties of Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire, including our own orchards and over the next three months, we’ll be welcoming all the fantastic growers to the mill. Week one may be a gradual start pressing in the region of 500 tonnes, but across the season we’ll be aiming to press a delicious 42,000 tonnes of fruit. So much more in every drop!

    Stowford Press has teamed up with Haven to give five lucky Stowford Press drinkers the chance to win a beautiful coastal getaway as part of an on-pack competition to drive revenue for retailers.   More than a million promotional packs of Stowford Press will be available from July across all retail channels. As cider increasingly becomes a year-round category, the competition offers an extended window to boost sales throughout summer and into the cooler months.   Currently worth £12.6M[1] in the off-trade, Stowford Press is growing at a rate of 29.2%[2] across grocery and convenience. While the total market has experienced a -3.4% decline in shopper numbers, Stowford Press is turning this trend on its head, with shopper number increasing by an impressive 11%.[3)"   [1] Circana Infoscan 52 w/e 10th Aug 2024 [2] Circana Infoscan 52 w/e 10th Aug 2024 [3] Kantar Worldpanel 52w/e 4th Aug 2024

    At 36.5%, over a third of draught cider stockists have two taps of cider on their bar and this is increasing year on year. Given the challenge of tap space and availability, cider and in particular premium apple cider offers a great way of increasing cider revenue and appealing to cider drinkers looking for an authentic and crafted proposition. Henry Westons Vintage, with the highest retail sales price in the category, has the potential to massively add value to an outlet.
