Since March 2012, Norcotts Cider has been turning tastebuds upside down wherever it goes. Created using a unique recipe developed by Cider Supremo Chris Norcott, Norcotts Ciders come in a traditional Applevariety along with the more fruit cider flavours of Elderflower, Pink Grapefruit, Strawberry & Limeand the very special Raspberry & Orange. While many fruit ciders are overly sweet with hints of saccharine, the Norcotts range is consistently refreshing and light with no unpleasant aftertaste. Stalls to tempt and delight will include jewellery, ceramics, cards, clothing, willow weaving, green wood carving, collector's bears, organic skincare, sweet treats, print, handmade books, textiles, metalwork, enamels and more!
