Off the scale ...

The juice from the Winnal's Longdon perry pears we milled and pressed today exceeded the scale of our hydrometer!! A specific gravity of 1.075 means the perry will have an ABV of around 9.5% (which means we'll have to call HMRC to register as a wine-maker!).

This will be the tale of this harvest, the fruit reflecting the hot, dry summer; ALL the starch has been turned into sugar thanks to the magic and mystery of photosynthesis, but the yields are low - sub 60% - which means all the wonderful characteristics of the pears is concentrated into less juice. We now let nature continue to do it's thing; the "wild" yeasts on the fruit, in the air, on the racks and cloths of our press will weave their magic (we hope) and turn this absurdly sweet juice into something almost mystical, possibly reminiscent of strawberries and cream or rhubarb and custard.

A rusty bucket full of Thorn perry pears. Half a tonne from a stunning traditional orchard in Upleadon, a beautifully secluded part of northern Gloucestershire, picked by Mike Manning yesterday - it is his orchard - and milled and pressed today.

324 litres produced, with a Specific Gravity of 1.058 - respectable, meaning the perry will be something in the region of 7.2% once it has fermented. The Barn was infused with a delightfully fresh aroma all afternoon.

Quality control in action, and also a lunch break in the life of a c***r-maker ...

Having just finished bottling a small batch of private-label c***r for a client, we felt a need to double- and triple-check the quality of the c***r we've just bottled, and no better way to do that take a bottle for oneself, that sit in the dappled shade for half an hour, admire the simple peace, tranquility and beauty of the rural Cotswolds, sip and enjoy said c***r (fresh, crisp, dry, refreshing, fault-free, the client will enjoy it, so it definitely passes the tests), slowly munch on our homemade coleslaw (kohlrahbi, cabbage, carrots, a few pine nuts) and reflect on how hundreds and thousands of choices made over 64+ years have led to this serene, happy (if somewhat solitary) moment ...
.. and also reflect on how much more pleasing it is to be a supporter of this current England football team and its manager than those from Argentina, notwithstanding the acute disappointment of last Wednesday's result. Viva España.

CONGRATULATIONS! Like Arsenal , Sheavyn FC are through to the final, thereby triggering a well-deserved extention to our sponsorship arrangement - a few more £££ and a lot more c***r being despatched to Manchester, in time for the final. This is more proof that the motivational effect of a good bottle of proper c***r can work in all sorts of ways. Come On You Tangerines!!

An ancient perry pear tree, a remnant of an old and neglected orchard, breaking into blossom, as it has done for many, many years ... but in the absence of pollination partners it rarely produces any fruit. To fix that, we recently planted several new perry trees next to it (safely enclosed in guards to protect them from marauding deer), in the hope and expectation of successful cross-pollination producing a crop.

This was part of a project organised and orchestrated by the National Trust at Ebworth, in the Cotwolds , where we played an advisory role, on behalf of the Gloucestershire Orchard Trust
