Our love of apples has led us to produce our first ever apple gin – Thatchers Orchard Cut.

Crafted with cider from Thatchers’ Katy apples, the gin is distilled by the award winning English Spirit Distillery, using a selection of botanicals, as well as fresh apple for characteristic flavour.

Thatchers Orchard Cut is citrusy and refreshing, with floral and apple notes. Botanicals including juniper, local Axbridge lavender from Lavender & Co, coriander, macadamia nut, buttercup, Seville orange, lemon and lime have been chosen to work alongside the apple flavours, providing a beautifully balanced drink with floral and fruity notes.

Martin Thatcher says, “By using cider from our own Katy apples, this fantastic gin is very much at home in our family. With people looking for individuality and character in their gin just as they do in their cider, this new offer once again demonstrates the brilliance and versatility of apples.”

The Thatchers Orchard Cut 70cl glass bottle has a full wrap label, representing the cut in the tree.

Highly recommended is an Orchard Cut and Thatchers Haze cocktail. Take 1 part gin and top with Thatchers Haze, decorating with mint, cucumber, and of course a slice of red apple.

Orchard Cut is currently available at Thatchers Cider shop at Myrtle Farm.
