ESKIMO EYES is a reflection of the sheer beauty, complexity and character that can surprise and enchant us all.
It is an exquisite and sublime perry with zingy citrus twist of freshness running through a bed of rich tropical fruit, all wrapped in the warm embrace of oak infused with the character of west indian rum and french white wine.
Made from a cocktail of perry pear varietals: Gin, Brandy, Hellens Early, Red Longdon, Blakeney Red and Winnalls Longdon from orchards in Ocle Pychard and Preston Wynne in Herefordshire. The soils are fertile and red, almost too good for perry pears and derived from the underlying Old Red Sandstone. The trees have been in the ground for between 30 and 60 years and are well established high stem, standard trees, grafted and budded on pyrus communis rootstocks.
The 2024 growing season was poor. Pollination weather was challenging, coupled with a very wet end of harvest and generally inadequate (not alternating) sun and rain through the growing season in between.
However, as the juice is keeved, the original sugar level is not so important, as some unfermented sugars will be retained to enhance the fruitiness in the finished perry and high alcohols are less important than good fruit character and fullness of flavour.
Spontaneously fermented by the wild yeasts living in our buildings, on our equipment and in and on the pears.
The perry was then matured and finished in french oak white wine barrels from France and American oak rum barrels from Barbados and Jamaica.
Lightly chill and enjoy with that friend or friends who make the world a better place.

Creamy blue cheeses
Roasted pork dishes
Charcuterie boards

Moorcroft is a magical and mystical pear - a variety that produces soft, fruity perries of the utmost quality. It is characterised by its early season, fast ripening habit, the pears turning to mush if you aren't quick enough to spot when they're ready! Work hard though and you earn this reward. Although a drink with zero fermentable sugar, the quality of the fruit produces something characterised by brilliant tropical fruit salad. Sip and savour and discover pineapples, passion fruit, lychee and lemon swirling around your glass.
A tropical fruit bomb, Winnal's Longdon is a pear that originated just a dozen miles away from our farm around 1790, and is named for its first propagator, Mr Winnal! Although we only started working with this pear in 2022, it has rapidly become one of our very favourite varieties. The perry is zingy with big citrus flavours of kiwi and lime, immensly refreshing and one of our favourite new varieties. Crucially, the variety appears to be resistant to fireblight, and so we highly encourage further planting of this heritage pear.
A testament to the value of good friends. After fireblight forced us to fell our own Gin Pear trees in 2021, Little Pomona let us know about a magical orchard that their friends, Dawn and Robin, had recently bought near Much Marcle. This perry is the result of that connection - together we spent a day alongside us handpicking these precious pears; then halved the bounty and each took them home to ferment. This is a classic Gin Pear flavour; gloriously elderflowery with light pear notes, with rather robust astringency owing to the very wet summer of 2023!
Recorded by Charles Martell as 'one of the very best vintage pears.' This Gloucestershire variety makes a superb perry with light and easy drinking qualities, full of pleasant pear notes that give it a smooth flavour. It is gently acidic, with subtle notes across the palate of delicious apricot marmalade!
