Championing the 'Real' Cider movement! Providing latest information on finding + enjoying REAL cider. 100% pressed apples, not industrial syrup. Wassail!

Real Cider is just fresh pressed fermented juice 100%. Nothing added, nothing taken away. Cheers!

Bray cider just off the M5 in Somerset. You can’t get much more of a cider farm experience here. Small scale producers doing things right the traditional way - also great little farm shop on site too ✌️

Was recently in Gloucestershire and with the fam, and found this lovely little drop at Apple orchard campsite - their own cider! Def stronger than 6.5%. If that doesn’t sell it enough they also have a baby donkey 🫏 called Bella x

Stunning from Welsh Mountain Cider, over six years since pressing & evolves into something even better than the last time I tasted it. Bravo 🥂

Ciderincider will be pouring local ciders - sparkling keg and still BIB’s - and a few bottles perhaps - hoping the sun comes out 🙏

[Jim @ Real Cider @RealCider]

Yes please. A lovely, juicy, sparkling Yarlington mill on a Sunday afternoon 👌 🙏

More apple trees lost.
Electricity for cold storage +300% on last year, labour +15% and rising again in April.
"Input prices (picking, energy, haulage packaging etc) +23%. Prices paid by supermarkets +0.8%" (say BAPL).
Once gone, forever gone 😢

Sadly this is a reality we can't change whilst multiple retailers have too much power. The artisan producer of full-juice cider is even more hammered relative to those (the vast majority) producing watered-down versions of cider.

Great afternoon yesterday - walking around Stanmer park and ending up visiting @BPTpermaculture fruit factory. The scrumpy is lovely. Sharp, zingy and full bodied!

@paulgeoghegan @LewesNibbler Is this true? @mariacaulfield. Water quality needs to be improved not worsened. I’ve seen rivers return to 80’s level pollution and that’s saying something. Let’s preserve all life not just money making humans 🙏

Good #Friday morning with sweet apple #harvest in #Shandong 🥳

[CBannister @mombannister]

Apple harvest 2022 finished! This year was beset with challenges:
Hail
Equipment breakdowns
DOL audits, etc.
But we made it through safely! We hosted a celebratory dinner for our workers before they left for their next jobs. ❤️

[Zwartbles Ireland • Suzanna Crampton @ZwartblesIE]

Apple harvest happening. A good but not great crop this year due to heavy necessary pruning last winter. Next year should see a marked improvement, as long as weather cooperates at appropriate times.

[GB News @GBNEWS]

‘There’s hundreds [of apples] on the trees and it looks like we’re going to have a good year.’

GB News’ Jeff Moody speaks to Bill Meaden from Cranborne Chase Cider about a positive apple harvest season.

[The Cider Cask @cidercask]

A long read but worth it for the flavour of this years apple (and perry pear) harvest. Some good things to come!

[Tutts Clump Cider @tuttsclumpcider]

Another 2.5 tonnes of apples pressed today which would otherwise be wasted 😊 #recycle #propercider

Lots of fun at @OneGardenBtn Halloween trail, and some tasty ciders in store. I’d love to host a guided cider tasting here.
