As a child he would sneak into the local walled garden, pick the apples in the orchard, and then take them to his two elderly neighbours (Elizabeth and Helen Henderson) who would then exchange his ‘Pochle’ of apples for butterscotch sweets. Now a bartender of 25 years, working across Glasgow, Edinburgh, Melbourne, and Prague Chris owns his own bar in Edinburgh’s Rose Street called The Black Cat which specialises in malt whisky and folk music. As a well-travelled individual, raised in rural Aberdeenshire, Chris has always appreciated his place in this world, nature and what Scotland’s produce has to offer. The Pochle story began in 2018 when he began collecting windfall apples from neighbours and making cider from them in the basement of his friend’s pub. Not even a global pandemic would stand in the way and in 2023 Chris launched his first sprit - Pochle Geal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/ad785756-0b89-44ec-bf75-03588d39e7d5/pochle-p.png Our Story - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/a522b9b7-07b1-45ae-83ad-61a11b866253/pochle-apple-spirit-liqueur-chris-miles.jpg Our Story - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/43c06a8b-fe10-4c64-b498-fe16f132e4b3/pochle-apple-spirit-scotland-apples-in-crates.jpg Our Story - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1686317811176-CKQJWD7RIZTQQBVJLV1H/pochle-apple-spirit-liqueur-chris-miles.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1686317812470-DZO5DAGJYFJ3LQUBXSJ0/pochle-apple-spirit-scotland-apples-in-crates.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1686566734069-ZVP0NQR65HGGPFU1CYEA/pochle-the-black-cat-rose-street-edinburgh.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1686566733709-X5PP7K07PC6UCRBBKTMJ/pochle-our-story-pochle-and-tonic-drink.jpg Our Story https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/b9b47530-0ce1-465d-8549-5e5c0cbac9b3/Copy+of+Bar+Flyer+%28Website%29.png Our Story - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://pochle.co.uk/news daily 0.75 2023-06-08 https://pochle.co.uk/news/7xhoxppn2bc3gzt5dt4ttrnqqxxoab monthly 0.5 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1685551046782-MCUS5G9QFHHHY81WEX2P/pochle5.jpg News - Public Launch Event: Sunday, June 11th https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1685551021055-8QT8OTZ1MYNY16PTM5XN/pochle-apple-spirit-scotland-apples-in-crates.jpg News - Public Launch Event: Sunday, June 11th https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1685551059956-W2QMAKXM0NK64CKPTCGU/suggestion1.jpg News - Public Launch Event: Sunday, June 11th https://pochle.co.uk/news/category/News monthly 0.5 https://pochle.co.uk/news/category/Careers monthly 0.5 https://pochle.co.uk/news/category/Learn monthly 0.5 https://pochle.co.uk/home daily 1.0 2023-06-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1685491933582-GVIZCDE51Q1X3HQT4UKQ/pochle-apple-spirit-edinburgh-bottle-banner.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1686566359365-NYTOSMFKMRUE7OP91N0K/pochle-geal-apple-spirit-edinburgh-scotland-home-banner.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/ad785756-0b89-44ec-bf75-03588d39e7d5/pochle-p.png Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/c0979f56-d206-4988-a880-7c1b57059b3a/pochle-apple-spirit-orchard-apple-tree.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/4879637d-5abd-4b49-be81-efba341d605d/pochle-apple-spirit-edinburgh-community.jpg Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/b863fa94-16fa-4861-8a71-cb6d26f128ca/suggestion1.jpg Home - Perfect Serve: P&T Ingredients: 25ml x Pochle Geal 125ml x tonic water Method: Fill a highball glass with cubed ice and add all the ingredients.

These are one-hour slots where we come and pick the apples directly from the tree. We will always offer the tree owner whatever apples they want first and are keen to emphasise that we only ask for surplus apples. Those you simply cannot manage to consume. These picking slots fill up fast! Please contact to arrange. In return for your apples, we offer a 10% discount on a bottle of Pochle. Apple Collections If you can pick the tree yourself, we arrange collections on two days of each week during harvest. On the arranged day, in the arranged time frame you leave the apples on your doorstep/at the end of your drive and we swing past and collect. We transfer any apples to our own containers for transport and leave your container. It is preferable to leave them in a bin or box (with due consideration given to the weather) rather than a plastic bag as the apple tends to rot quicker in plastic. (Not to mention the environmental impact) In return for your apples, we offer a 10% discount on a bottle of Pochle. Drop Offs/Apple Amnesties You are more than welcome to drop off apples at different pre-arranged points around Edinburgh. Contact directly to arrange. If you arrange to drop off at the warehouse on a juicing day, we can offer fresh juice in exchange. Alternatively, we plan to hold apple amnesties in different areas of the city where you bring your surplus apples, and we bring the juicing equipment to you and exchange juice for apples. https://pochle.co.uk/stockists daily 0.75 2023-07-24 https://pochle.co.uk/serves daily 0.75 2023-06-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/fc957d29-f089-4288-8a9f-e452e4173994/suggestion1.jpg Serves - The Pochle & Tonic P&T offering a path less travelled to those who enjoy the many wonders of a G&T! Ingredients: 25ml x Pochle Geal 125ml x tonic water Method: Fill a highball glass with cubed ice and add the ingredients.

Fill with cubed ice and shake for 8-12 seconds. Fine strain into a chilled cocktail glass, then garnish with lemon or orange twist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/c648131f-835a-47b4-bf11-470be976e7bc/Bottle-2.png Serves - Pochle Geal 2023: Notes: Green apple, Citrus, Spice Sweet green apple comes to the fore on the nose followed by a background of orange marmalade and subtle hints of cardamon. On the palate the spirit is light and nutty with a complex finishing mix of floral spiciness. The spirit’s magnificent complexity has come from many things but predominantly the yeast used to make the cider and a lengthy fermentation. As a most welcome result, it marries remarkably well with tonic! https://pochle.co.uk/inchcolm daily 0.75 2023-06-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/519938a2-55a5-4f4e-b7c1-0b642ef5c189/IDC_LOGO_BLUE.png Inchcolm - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://pochle.co.uk/privacy daily 0.75 2023-06-08 https://pochle.co.uk/shipping-and-returns daily 0.75 2023-06-10 https://pochle.co.uk/faq daily 0.75 2023-06-09 https://pochle.co.uk/shop daily 0.75 2023-06-08 https://pochle.co.uk/shop/pochle-geal monthly 0.5 2026-03-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1684180264549-95224TSEAGX484YSE23T/Bottle-2.png Shop - Geal https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/64623ac7a6f0196b460c5732/1684159179994-1VY7IK76LNBL20W88YSQ/rachit-tank-2cFZ_FB08UM-unsplash+%281%29.jpg Shop - Geal
