Home > Eating Out > Apple Juice Producers
From tiny orchards making farmhouse 'scrumpy', large commercial operations producing a smooth refined drink, to the delicious Apple Brandy and the huge variety of refreshingly cool Apple Juices available - there has always been a strong association between Somerset and apples!
Many of the orchards are attractions in their own right so make a little time to explore. Choose either apple juice producers or cider producers.
