Burton Hard Cider Burton W. Bishop’s sons were instrumental in setting out our first orchard of 600 trees in the 1920’s. 100 years later, with over 18,000 trees, 580 of them are heirloom and cider varietals used exclusively in our hard cider blends. The apples in this blend include Golden Russet, Yarlington Mill, Wickson, and Dabinett, each contributing unique flavors and aromas to make a great tasting and robust dry cider. Serve lightly chilled.
