You’re thinking of Julian Temperley (father, incidentally, of fashion designer, Alice Temperley). He’s the only guy in the country with a licence to distill cider and his Somerset Apple Brandy is simply stunning (and far better than any Calvados I’ve had). He makes 5, 10 and 15 year old versions, as well as the far less alcoholic Kingston Black Apple Aperitif and Somerset Pomona. Waitrose stocks most of them, as do Yapp Bros (01747 860423, www.yappbrothers.com), but for more stockists visit www.ciderbrandy.co.uk.
