Devon’s Sandford Orchards is celebrating two more awards for its popular session cider, Devon Red.
It has scooped a gold at the Food Drink Devon Awards and a silver at the Great British Food Awards. These are in addition to the gold it was awarded at the Taste of The West Awards earlier this year.
“Devon Red is our flagship cider and the one that is most well-known and widely adored by our fans,” said chief cidermaker Barney Butterfield.
“Just last year it was voted best drink by the readers of Food Lifestyle Magazine. However, we are sometimes, perhaps, a little complacent about just how good it is. So this year, we decided to put this to the test with the professionals and entered it into three award competitions.
“We are thrilled to say that it has returned victorious from each one. Across the board, the judging panels, which included some leading drinks experts, have recognised Devon Red as an award-winning cider.”
