Our recent outing to Penrhos Spirits was a lot of fun and very informative, we all enjoyed the tour and samples and hearing about how it all came about.
Thanks to Charlie for answering all the questions, of which there were many and putting up with the hecklers!
We completed a fabulous social with a superb meal at The Cattle Shed restaurant at the beautiful Penrhos Court.

PENRHOS SPIRITS - The Story
Some years ago a chance conversation led us to pool our resources and knowledge together to grow fruit in the wonderful fields of Herefordshire.
The Herefordshire Marches is a magical place, a natural border between England and Wales steeped in so much history it is impossible not to feel the spirit of this land in the countryside we tread and the people we meet.
For generations, we have farmed this land and now we have captured these natural elements in every sense. Carefully grown and hand-picked ingredients that celebrate our provenance and stimulate our senses. Every element of our process has a purpose and a passion, magically distilled into nature’s own essence.
Richard Williams and Charlie Turner
