Maen nhw’n ymuno â chynnyrch gwych eraill o Gymru megis Bara Lawr, Cig Oen o Gymru a Halen Môn, sydd wedi cael eu cydnabod ac wedi ennill statws gwarchodedig rhag cael eu copïo a’u camddefnyddio.  
Mae Perai Traddodiadol o Gymru a Seidr Traddodiadol o Gymru yn cael eu gwarchod gan statws Dynodiad Daearyddol Gwarchodedig Ewropeaidd a fydd yn sicrhau i gwsmeriaid eu bod yn yfed cynnyrch o Gymru.   
Mae 14 cynnyrch o Gymru wedi ennill statws gwarchodedig. Yr anrhydedd i Berai Traddodiadol o Gymru a Seidr Traddodiadol o Gymru yw mai nhw yw'r diodydd cyntaf o Gymru i gael statws PGI.   
Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi helpu Cymdeithas Perai a Seidr  Cymru yn ystod y  broses ymgeisio gymhleth a hir.   
Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Amgylchedd a Materion Gwledig, Lesley Griffiths:  

> "Rwy'n hapus iawn mai'r bwyd a diod diweddaraf o Gymru i ennill statws gwarchodedig yw Perai Traddodiadol o Gymru a Seidr Traddodiadol o Gymru.   
> "Dyma ragor o dystiolaeth o lwyddiant sector bwyd a diod Cymru ac effeithiolrwydd ein strategaeth i'w gefnogi. Rydym yn prysur ennill enw da am ddatblygu cynnyrch unigryw o ansawdd da ac mae'r diwydiant eisoes fwy na hanner ffordd at gyrraedd ein targed o dwf o 30% rhwng 2014 a 2020\.   
> “Mae cydnabyddiaeth gan y Comisiwn Ewropeaidd yn bwysig gan ei bod yn arwydd o ansawdd cynnyrch  Cymru wrth inni ymdrechu i gyrraedd marchnadoedd newydd er mwyn ehangu'r diwydiant a pharatoi ar gyfer dyfodol y tu allan i’r Undeb Ewropeaidd."

  
Diodydd sy'n ail ennill eu plwyf yw Perai Traddodiadol o Gymru a Seidr Traddodiadol o Gymru.  Roedden nhw'n cael eu cynhyrchu'n bennaf ar ffermydd gan ddefnyddio gellyg ac afalau o berllannoedd gerllaw i'w hyfed yn yr ardal. Mae adfywiad y diodydd yn seiliedig ar gynhyrchwyr artisanaidd yn ailddarganfod ac yn adfer hen berllannoedd a phlannu perllannoedd newydd. Meddai Sally Perks, Cadeirydd WPCS: 
> "Mae Cymdeithas Perai a Seidr Cymru ar ben eu digon gyda'r newyddion hyn a'r gydnabyddiaeth bod Perai Traddodiadol o Gymru a Seidr Traddodiadol o Gymru yn gynnyrch unigryw. Mae'n anferth o hwb i wneuthurwyr seidr sydd am weld eu cynnyrch yn cael eu cydnabod ledled Prydain a thu hwnt."

They join other iconic Welsh products, such as Welsh Laverbread, Welsh Lamb and Halen Môn/Anglesey Sea Salt, in being recognised for their distinct quality and awarded protection against imitation and misuse.

Traditional Welsh Perry and Traditional Welsh Cider are protected by the European Protected Geographical Indication status (PGI), which will provide consumers with the confidence they are drinking the genuine Welsh product. 

In total, 14 Welsh products have now been awarded protected status. Traditional Welsh Perry and Traditional Welsh Cider have now received the honour of being the first Welsh drinks to attain the PGI status. 

The Welsh Government has supported the Welsh Perry and Cider Society during the complicated and extensive application process. 

Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Rural Affairs, Lesley Griffiths said:


> “I am delighted Traditional Welsh Perry and Traditional Welsh Cider are the latest of our food and drink products to be awarded protected status.  
> 
> “This is further evidence of the success of the Welsh food and drink sector and the effectiveness of our strategy to support it.  We are forging a reputation for developing unique, high quality products and the industry is already more than half way towards reaching our target of 30% growth from 2014 to 2020\. 
> 
> “The recognition from the European Commission is important as it demonstrates the quality of Wales’ produce as we strive to reach new markets to grow the industry and prepare for a future outside of the EU."

Traditional Welsh Perry and Traditional Welsh Cider are re\-emerging products that were largely farm\-produced drinks using perry pears and cider apples grown in nearby orchards and made for local consumption. The revival of these drinks has been based on artisan producers rediscovering and restoring ancient orchards and planting new orchards. 

Sally Perks Chairman of the WPCS said:


> “The Welsh Perry and Cider Society are thrilled with this announcement and the recognition of Traditional Welsh Cider and Traditional Welsh Perry as unique products. It provides a huge boost to Welsh cider makers in getting their products recognised throughout the UK and abroad.”
