King Offa Distillery
Distilling: the process of heating a liquid until its more volatile constituents pass into vapour, and then cooling vapour to recover the distillate.
The Cider Museum was granted a licence in 1984 by H.M. Customs and Excise to revive the craft of distilling cider. This was the first such licence to be granted in over 200 years and even now it is only one of two places making cider brandy in the British Isles.
Cider Brandy is produced by distilling cider twice. The cider spirit is then matured in oak casks for a minimum of five years during which time the spirit loses its fire and gains its colour from the tannin found in the oak wood.
The King Offa Distillery also produces Apple Aperitif and Cider Liqueur.
