The Cidery Tour and Tasting Gift Bundle from Big Nose and Beardy gives someone a proper afternoon out at their East Sussex orchard in Framfield — a guided tour, a tutored tasting, and a 3-pack of cider to take home, plus a Bignose and Beardy glass to drink it from. The date is flexible: pick any available date when you order, and the recipient can contact the team to switch to one that suits them better.
What the bundle includes:
- A guided tour of the orchard — the trees, the apple varieties, how they grow and what goes into making cider from them
- A hands-on tour of the cidery — the press, the tanks, and the rest of the kit used to make each batch
- A tutored tasting of all current ciders, held among the apple trees (or inside the cidery if the weather has other ideas)
- Free entry to the tap night with live music, food, and cider, when running on the same date
- A Bignose and Beardy branded glass
- A 3-pack of cider, collected at the tour
About the cider: Big Nose and Beardy make real vintage Sussex cider using local waste fruit — apples sourced from private gardens and orchards across the county, hand-picked with the help of volunteers. Their ciders are wild fermented, slow matured, unfiltered, and unpasteurised, produced in small batches that shift in character each year depending on the apple source and the season's weather. Each batch matures for at least a year, often longer. The style is Eastern Counties or New World: fresh, acidic, fruity, and floral.

About Our Brand Big Nose and Beardy
Big Nose and Beardy specialises in producing authentic Sussex cider, offering a refreshing alternative to mass-produced beverages. Their focus on traditional methods and natural fermentation addresses the desire for enjoyable drinks made with transparency and care for their environmental impact.
What sets Big Nose and Beardy apart is their dedication to a closed-loop production system. They source the majority of their apples from local private gardens and orchards, hand-picking them with the help of volunteers. Their pressing process is powered by a combination of solar, water, and human energy, ensuring minimal reliance on external power sources.
Further demonstrating their commitment to sustainability, the apple pomace remaining after pressing is fed to local pigs and cows, effectively eliminating waste and enriching the local ecosystem. Their packaging, including metal bottle caps, lightweight glass bottles, and cardboard cases, is fully recyclable, reflecting a holistic approach to environmental responsibility from orchard to consumer.
