Gloucester Select Perry Cider Bundle (6 Trees)
Everyone knows Apple Cider, but how many people have tasted its cousin, Perry? Cider pears are a thing of legend in their native land of England, where they originated in the small village of Hartpury, a part of Gloucester Abbey. Perry cider, made from mixing the juice of the hard and astringent "wyld peres" and cider apples, creates a unique beverage that is considered sweeter and more complex than apple cider alone.
Virtually unknown outside of England for hundreds of years, Perry is taking the world by storm in the 21st century! Now you can also be part of the Perry party with our Gloucester Select Perry Cider Pear Bundle (wow! What a mouthful!). Save 20% on our best-selling Perry Bundle!
