About Orchard Pig
Orchard Pig is a West Country cider brand that C&C says began in a Somerset shed surrounded by apple orchards and free-roaming Old Spot pigs. Its range includes Reveller, a crisp 4.5 per cent cider, and Truffler, a dry 6 per cent cider. C&C bought Orchard Pig in its 2018 financial year, and in its 2026 accounts it booked an impairment charge on the brand and on its Gaymers ciders because of difficult trading in the UK cider market.
