Sandford Orchards Katja & Katja Rosé Hamper
Perfect for Mother’s Day this hamper contains two 750ml bottles of fine sparkling ciders - Katja and Katja Rosé - and two bars of Willy’s chocolate. Katja is created from Katy apples that are pressed and fermented cool with a white wine yeast to enhance their fresh and fragrant apple characterics. It's elegant, sparkling and a fabulous British alternative to Prosecco.
Katja Rosé, is created using the same method, but the skins of Rondo grapes are added during fermentation to give it a beautiful blush colour. It tastes of sun ripened cherries and peaches with notes of apple blossom and candyfloss.
