Thatchers Apple & Blackcurrant Cider

Thatchers Apple & Blackcurrant Cider is a rich and fruity alcoholic beverage crafted by Thatchers Cider Company, a family-run cidermaker based in Somerset, England. The product is part of a long-standing tradition of cider production that utilizes specific apple varieties grown in the local region, combined here with the tart and sweet notes of blackcurrant.

Founded in 1904 by William John Thatcher, the brand remains under the private ownership and management of the Thatcher family, now spanning four generations. Production is centralized at Myrtle Farm in Sandford, where the company maintains its own orchards and pressing facilities. Unlike many global beverage brands, Thatchers has maintained its independence from major multinational drink corporations, continuing to operate as a family-led enterprise with a focus on sustainable agricultural practices and local heritage.
