Healeys Experiences

New for 2020! From pip to pour, enjoy a more intimate and in-depth Healeys Cyder Experience at Cornwall’s oldest cyder farm. 

As well as everything included with your general admission, you'll be invited to unearth the full Healeys story and learn more about cyder making & tasting!

The Full Healeys Experience includes:

• A 15-minute vintage tractor ride through our 20-acre Cornish orchards on an audio tour.
• In your small groups/bubbles, and with a Cydermaster as your guide, you'll ascend our famous Healeys giant cyder vat! Here, you'll discover more about modern-day cyder making. With exclusive headsets on the viewing platform, get detailed information about our blends, cyder vats and see first-hand how our cyder makes it way through our state-of-the-art bottling & kegging lines with question and answers along the way.
• You will then venture through the farm to the press house and see our impressive cyder vats, before heading down to where are our brand new self-serve bar installation now sits in the Rattler Bar!
• Here you’ll take a seat in the Rattler Bar to learn the art of cyder tasting: understanding acidity, sweetness, and tannins whilst unearthing Healeys’ secret apple blends. Become an honouree Cornish Cydermaster, learning how to truly taste our three most popular cyder blends whilst discovering the techniques of their creation. Following the experience, take this new knowledge to our sample bars to enjoy the full Healeys cyder range!
• Top off this delicious experience with a FREE pint of Rattler or a soft drink for each guest.

During the tasting part of this experience, children will be offered the opportunity to enjoy their own juice blending experiment and will also be given their own juice label to design and stick on to their very own bottle of juice to take home with them.
