99PINES is a small-scale community Perry outfit based in Kent’s Green, at the foot of May Hill. 

We love seeking out rare perry pear varieties on and around May Hill to produce craft, small-batch perrys made with 100% pear juice.  All our fruit is handpicked by volunteers (that we affectionally name “piners”).

100% of our profits go to local charities nominated by our supporters.  This year we are supporting St Richard’s Hospice and Teens in Crisis mental health charity. 

We established ourselves in 2022, with our Moorcroft receiving 2nd place at the 2023 Herefordshire Cider Museum International Competition.  We’re excited to be chosen to sell our produce through May Hill Hub, the heart of English perry country! 

Enjoy chilled.  Works amazingly with cheese … Gluten free & suitable for vegans.

Moorcroft - A smooth drinking single variety medium perry.  Moorcroft is one of our staple favourites that delivers caramel and ice cream flavours.  Sourced from two trees near the top of May Hill in September 2023.  Moorcroft has previously won 99PINES awards at the Hereford Cider & Perry competition.  Also known as Stinking Bishop (the cheese is dipped in it) but don't let this put you off this smooth operator! 5.1% alcohol by volume. 500ml.

Thorn - Like a dry wine, the sweet, dry and acid combo of this Thorn single variety perry delivers fruity citrus flavours with a hint of fig.  Picking and pressing Thorn is an art ... One day it's ripe, the next it's mush and clogging the press like blancmange.  Picked from two trees from a stunning heritage orchard in Gorsley, Herefordshire in September 2023.  6% alcohol by volume. 500ml.

Oldfield Reds Blend - A cracking blend of Oldfield and other local varieties, including Blakeney Red, Aylton Red and Gin pear.  The Oldfield was kindly picked by Harry, Katie and family, from a previously overgrown orchard.  The Blakeney Red was sourced from Jules' stunning perry orchard near Dymock, Gloucestershire.  Pressed in October 2023 it drinks like lemonade, with flavours of jammy pear and violets, with a bitter finish.  Placed 3rd place at the 2024 Big Apple Cider & Perry trials, Herefordshire.  5.4% alcohol by volume.  500ml.

Gin Pear - What's not to like about a perry variety called Gin?!  A super light single variety perry, perfect for a summers day tipple.  Enjoy hints of elderflower, juniper, nectarine and blackcurrants.  Picked with help from Mark in November 2023 from a stunning heritage perry orchard in Gorsley, Herefordshire.  5% alcohol by volume. 500ml.
