Company email (Aug 2017)
"Many of our ciders are made from ingredients which are suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Some of our ciders do contain cochineal and some of the flavoured ciders aren't suitable for vegetarians due to the manner of production of the fruit juices used. It should be noted that for all our ciders, there is always the possibility of low levels of carry-over between ciders that aren't suitable for vegetarians and those that are.

"I can however confirm that all of our variants of Old Mout is suitable for vegetarians/vegans."

"We do not use any such elements [isinglass, gelatin, etc] within our cidery though. All Monteith’s products across beer and cider are produced in NZ only."

Company email (October 2012):
"Yes – all our ciders (Monteiths, Johnny Arrow, and Old Mout) are vegan friendly.
We don’t use any dairy, fish, or animal derived fining agents.
We use bentonite clay for fining."
