We’ve two generations of apple growing experience and expertise to draw on so we know exactly the right moment to press our apples: when they’re at their peak flavour and texture. We’ve been a family-owned business since Clive Charrington bought Cryals Farm back in the 1960s and over the years we’ve supplied our premium quality apples to all of the UK’s supermarkets.

In our ciders and juices we use classic British varieties (coxes, russets and bramleys) while to our Apple Crisps we also include Cheerfull Gold^TM (a new local variety from Sissinghurst in Kent). We only ever use apples we’ve grown ourselves in our own orchards, which is how we can guarantee their quality and traceability.

We’ve been winners at the Quality Awards three times: Best cider for Queen of Cox (2018) and Cryals Classic (2016); and Best Sweet Bagged Snack for our Apple Crisps (2016). We’ve also been Highly Commended twice and were twice shortlisted for Small Producer of the Year.
