Where can I buy farmhouse cider?
Buy farmhouse cider from cider farms and farm shops, specialist cider shops and festivals, and makers who bottle unfiltered or orchard-led cider. There is no single legal “farmhouse” grade in the UK or US, so read juice statements and maker notes rather than the word alone on a supermarket shelf.
