Plums and petals are two of our favourite things. Like all our ingredients, both are fleeting: transient yet punctual in their annual rhythms.

Warm and bright, this blend is aged on golden plums and foraged elderflower for many months before bottling. Ostara Elderflower takes 3 years to make.

What's it like? Ostara Elderflower starts with punchy elderflower aromas supported by lively plum notes. The cider is dry, but has perceptual sweetness from the elderflower. The flowers add nuanced fruit notes: think Muscat, lychee and pear.

This spring we found a giant grove of elderflower, which had a distinct butterscotch aroma. That comes through underneath the fruity notes in this blend.

This blend drinks like a prickly sparkling white wine, made from a grape variety that  exists only in our imaginations.

Wild fermented with our native microflora.

*Ostara is our name for a series of ciders pairing golden plums and flowers. Each blend is a 3 year project. In this one, the apples were harvested in 2019, plums in 2020, and we foraged the wild elderflower in the spring of 2021.
