Dunkertons is a family company started in 1980 by Susie and Ivor Dunkerton. Having escaped from London they set about trying to make a smallholding of eighteen acres viable. Cider was the answer. Herefordshire then had one dominant cider company but, unlike Somerset, had few farm producers. The Dunkertons saw an opportunity to make a unique cider whilst operating more like a vineyard and without depending on concentrates or chemicals. Susie and Ivor have always been encouraged by their sons Julian who has become a Director of the Company, and Martin who visits regularly as a Director of film in Los Angeles. During the first years Susie and Ivor did everything from shovelling apples and loading their original 1930s Hydraulic Press on their own, but were relieved when Robert (now Chief Cidermaker), joined them from the vegetable garden where he originally came to work. Now the pressing through to bottling is carried out by Robert, Jeremy, Paul, Roger and John, while Susie and Ivor enjoy tasting and blending, overseeing the business and carrying through expansion plans.
