History

The company was started by Andy Atkinson in 1999. The farm has 15 acres of its own apples, mainly heritage varieties but also buys in apples from local orchards[3]

In 2013 the company sold in a multimillion-pound deal to a London brewing and pubs group, Fuller, Smith and Turner. Fuller's was acquired by Asahi UK in 2019 for £250m, although both Fuller's & Cornish Orchards continue to trade under their own names.[4]

Awards

The company has won several awards for its cider, including a gold in the Campaign for Real Ale's national cider and perry championships at Reading in 2012[5]

gollark: How are they hassle-free? You have to carry them around and not randomly break them and stuff.
gollark: Hmm, hopefully laser eye surgery will decline in cost over the next few decædes!
