Middlezoy · Somerset
Lower in strength. Full of Somerset cider character.
Wady’s makes cider at a lower ABV than many traditional Somerset producers, without stripping away the fruit, flavour and punch that make the region’s cider distinctive.
The cider house
Wady’s Cider is based at The Ark in Middlezoy, between Langport and Bridgwater. Its cider is shaped by apples grown in its own orchard and by the balance each variety brings to the final drink.
The result is cider designed to remain approachable in strength while still tasting unmistakably Somerset: fruity, structured and full of proper cider character.
Less alcohol, no compromise
Lower-ABV cider can sometimes lose the body and intensity people expect from a traditional West Country pint. Wady’s takes a different approach, using orchard fruit and carefully balanced varieties to retain sweetness, acidity, tannin and depth.
The orchard
Wady’s grows a mixture of dessert and traditional cider apples. Each variety contributes something different, giving the cider maker the building blocks needed to create flavour at a more moderate strength.
Sweet and juicy
A crisp eating apple that brings juicy sweetness and fresh acidity.
Bittersharp structure
A well-flavoured apple with pink juice, acidity and tannin for structure.
Bittersweet depth
A classic vintage-quality cider apple capable of producing a well-flavoured cider in its own right.
Cider character
The Orchard Route list will reflect the ciders currently available from Wady’s, but the house style remains consistent: accessible strength, orchard fruit and a proper Somerset finish.
Sweet and sharp apples keep the cider lively, rounded and easy to enjoy.
Bittersharp and bittersweet varieties provide tannin, grip and lasting character.
A lower-strength option for drinkers who still want a full-flavoured Somerset cider.
