Stonewell
Stonewell is Ireland’s ONLY Supreme Champion premium cider. Made with ONLY fresh apple juice by a small team in Cork, Ireland, it is free of all artificial additives & colourings. An international multi-award winning cider with quality second to none.
The salty sea air doesn’t favour apple trees and so all of the apples that go into his Irish craft cider are bought from Irish farmers in the counties of Carlow, Kilkenny, Waterford, Tipperary & Cork. The principal cider maker, Daniel knows these farmers personally and this ensures he understands the care with which these crops are nurtured and grown – a fact which is hugely important given it is his sole principal ingredient and he's committed to producing a natural cider with integrity.
When the apples arrive his small team of traditional Irish cider makers wash and manually sort them, removing any which they consider over-ripe or damaged. This helps him in his goal to achieve a pristine pressed juice. He adds a final ingredient, a naturally cultured champagne yeast which gives his Irish craft cider such a distinguished “nose” and smoothness on the palate.
