| Description |
Dunkertons
have made organic cider and perry to
Soil Association standards since 1988;
they were the first in Herefordshire
to get accreditation. Using a traditional
press and mill, circa 1930, the cider
is made to extremely high standards
using time honoured methods. Dunkertons
is on the Black and White Trail in Herefordshire.
Dunkertons
is a family company started in 1979
by Susie and Ivor Dunkerton. Having
escaped from London they set about trying
to make a smallholding of eighteen acres
work. Cider was the answer. Herefordshire
has one dominating cider company, but
unlike Somerset has few farm producers.
The Dunkertons saw an opportunity, realised
their dream and have grown ever since.
Their son Julian Dunkerton has become
a Director and Martin Dunkerton is another
sort of Director in Hollywood.
