Little Pomona
Drawn by the great traditions and great ciders of Herefordshire, inspired by the people who make them and captivated by perfect terroir and the beautiful bittersweet apples grown there, we journeyed west. So it was that, in late 2014, on a small five-acre piece of land in northern Herefordshire, below an ancient hill fort overlooking the Malvern Hills, Little Pomona Orchard & Cidery was born. They named our “Little” cidery after Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit trees and the orchard, and like her they determinedly guard and nurture their apple trees. Ramones fans among you will find another connection.
