How Tom got into producing Three Counties Perry and why he chose this particular product
Having grown up in the heart of  the Three Counties of Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire, Tom appreciates the importance of Perry and Perry pear growing to the region. The great tradition of Perry producing is close to Tom’s heart and it saddened him as he watched it’s popularity decline. Determined to do something about this decline Tom started producing Three Counties Perry using traditional methods, determined to promote this wonderful product and champion its place in Britain’s culinary heritage. The subtle yet complex flavour of his Perry is a result of Tom’s attention to detail from the variety of Perry pear used to his insistence on not using chemicals in the growing process.

The challenges that Tom is facing producing Three Counties Perry
Tom’s greatest challenge is the lack of raw material. To deal with this Tom helps run an extensive campaign to encourage planting of new Perry pear orchards on new rootstocks and traditional ones, this involves proving that there can be economic return from growing Perry pears. Only by improving the growing system of Perry pears in the Three Counties can Tom produce Perry of the highest quality which will gain a superior price with consumers and re-sellers. In Tom’s words Perry making “is part science, part leap of faith”. He works with natural raw materials which vary in everything from size and sugar content to nutrients, meaning that the final product often varies in flavour and appearance. All these factors make the Three Counties Perry unique but convincing consumers, who are used to standardised taste and appearance, remains a challenge.
