The Chalkhill Blue butterfly was chosen for the label of Chalkdown cider for its association with the southern down lands of England where the apples for Chalkdown cider are grown.  The butterfly can be found on chalk and limestone hillsides in the summer.  In bright sunshine the ground can shimmer with the pale blue of hundreds of Chalkhill Blues, flying inches above the ground, looking for a mate.  We hope that its delicate beauty is reflected in our cider.
