Brook Farm, Herefordshire, United Kingdom

Fortunately for me, the farm I was staying at was just a stone's throw away from Peter Keam, the lone cider maker in the village of Wigmore. Peter was formerely a fire fighter near London and moved out to Herefordshire about 10 years ago to retire to the country. Peter had the foresight to buy a 500 year old Black and White house that came with its very own cider & perry orchard. Though he brings some fruit in from neighboring farms, he is able to make loads of the good stuff from his very own fruit, and still finds time to do cider pressing for some other cider makers in the area. Brook Farm is on the Herefordshire Cider Route, and well worth checking out.
