Production
Made from 100% freshly-pressed Bramley apple juice. After a primary alcoholic fermentation, it’s left on its natural yeast lees to develop body and complexity, after which it’s naturally settled and minimally filtered. After bottling, it undergoes a secondary fermentation that creates the natural fizz. However, the real magic is the in-bottle on-the-lees ageing which Anatomy undergoes for 12 to 24 months. The length of ageing adds layers of complexity and flavour to create a true stand-out cider with a style that’s akin to a top quality champagne grape wine.

Tasting notes
The unique, modern 'celebration' style of Anatomy cider is a real crowd-pleaser that’s designed to surprise and delight wine drinkers and traditional cider drinkers alike. Made like a ‘traditional method’ sparkling wine, fermented in the bottle to create a fine mousse and elegant flavours to create a refreshing sparkling cider with clear, crisp, green apple flavours and subtle floral notes. Bright, fresh, yet delicate, crisp English apple flavours that you’d expect from a well-crafted cider. It also comes with an elegant mousse to match with the yeasty, bready, biscuity and buttery notes long from ageing in-bottle on the yeast lees. Many have described this cider as apple champagne.
Food match
Often enjoyed in a flute glass with light canapés, but a great pairing with fresh fish dishes. The bubbles and crisp acidity balance well with the freshness of a simple smoked salmon or some mackerel pâté.
