Double Celebration at Biddenden!

Biddenden are proud to announce that their Sparkling Cider 2021 has been crowned Supreme Champion at the British Cider Championships 2025.

This prestigious accolade, earned at the Royal Bath & West Show, places Biddenden at the very top of British cider-making, winning the Supreme title out of 520 entries!

Crafted using the méthode traditionnelle, the same approach used for Champagne, and made exclusively from Kentish Bramley, Cox and Russet apples, this sparkling cider is elegant, crisp, and finely balanced. The cider has wowed judges with its lightness and vibrant orchard character. Tom Barnes, General Manager and third-generation family member, describes the win as “an honour and testament to what we do – blending local ingredients, heritage and winemaking precision.” This award marks a proud moment not only for Biddenden but also for Kent’s growing reputation as a hub for drink, food, and sustainable tourism.

The fruity favourite, Biddies Strawberry Mint, also won best in class - Fruit Cider. Made with care using Kentish fruit and winemaking expertise, both ciders showcase the craftmanship and character that makes Biddenden so special. Both award-winning ciders are available now from Biddenden’s Shop and online store – perfect for celebrations, gifting, or simply enjoying on a sunny day.
