About Thatchers
For over a century, the Thatcher family has been quietly perfecting the art of turning apples into cider on Myrtle Farm in Somerset, England. This journey began in 1904 when William John Thatcher first made the family's signature farmhouse cider, setting the stage for generations of Thatchers to follow in his footsteps.
Each generation of the family has passed down their cider-making secrets, continuously refining the process and nurturing the heritage of their craft. The Thatchers take great care to encourage bees to pollinate the apple blossom and maintain the 100-year-old oak vats where the cider matures.
The Thatchers family is committed to ensuring the highest quality for their products. Every Friday, at 12:30 pm, they gather to taste the next vat of apple cider. If the cider doesn't meet their exacting standards, it never leaves the farm. This commitment to excellence is why Thatchers cider is known for capturing the true taste of cider.
Today, under the leadership of Martin Thatcher, the fourth generation of the family, Thatchers continues to innovate while staying true to their roots. They blend traditional techniques with modern technology to create a range of ciders, including their award-winning Thatchers Zero Cider, which offers a superb alcohol-free alternative without compromising on flavour.
The Thatchers story is a testament to the family's unwavering dedication to their craft and their determination to share the magic of cider-making with the world.
