The Spirit The Spirit
England
Shipwreck is a delicious cider brandy, carefully crafted using a wide variety of apples grown in Somerset at Pass Vale Farm. The farm sits at the base of Barrow Hill and 180 acres of magnificent cider apple orchards provide the fruit to produce very fine English cider and top-class, award-winning brandy. Shipwreck is bottled at 42%, adding richness and power to the palate sitting in perfect balance with smoke notes, dried fruits and of course plenty of toffee apple character.
The Distillery The Distillery
Pass Vale Farm and distillery sits at the base of Barrow Hill in Somerset where 180 acres of cider apple orchards provide the fruit to create exceptionally good cider and, these days,award-winning cider brandy, too. The farm has a 200 plus year history of pressing cider, however, back in 1989 Julian Temperley decided to bring back an age old Somerset tradition and, at the same time, craft the first ever fully licensed cider brandy!
The Perfect Serve The Perfect Serve
This West Country cider brandy is exceptionally smooth and we like sipping it neat, on the rocks, in a classic brandy bowl glass.
