444: Worleys and Honey's: Somerset Cider Makers

A sit down Cider Chat with the makers behind Worleys and Honey's Cider!

Neil Worley was last on this podcast back in 2016 on episode 26! He and Ria met up at CiderCon which was being held that year in Portland Oregon. Neil's episode on Keeving, a basic how-to, has been a perennical favorite for listeners. Kimberly Jones took over Honey's Cider in 2019 for Bob Honey. Both makers are based in Somerset and each have their own unique style and approach to making Cider.
