Thatchers Gold Cider, 500ml

Product Information

In his role as an independent advocate for cider, he writes, talks, teaches, tastes and trains. He explains: “So often there isn't enough nuance or understanding about the amazing breadth of opportunities and types and styles that exist for cider. It’s often pigeonholed as being a single thing, or it’s a sweet thing or just a summer thing but it can be all of those things and so much more.” Given the theoretical task of putting three types of cider on at a pub, The Ciderologist is keen to explain his decision in choosing an ‘eastern counties-style’ line, a ‘western counties-style’ option and a flavoured cider too. Furthermore, Magners Original and Stowford Press also retained their places from last year – fourth and fifth respectively.

The Ciderologist Cook summarises: “Pubs are missing out on an opportunity to capture a new type of drinker and a new experience that craft cider can provide. It can provide some of the experience of beer in terms of how it’s drunk but can also capture some of the flavour characters of wine. Cider is the ultimate thirst quencher on a warm summer’s day but it can also be so much more than that. There are so many different types and styles and flavours that can appeal to a whole range of different drinkers and this new wave of craft ciders means there’s a cider for everyone.” Thatchers are also involved in many local events and festivals including: Glastonbury Festival, Royal Bath and West Show, Bristol International Balloon Fiesta and Cambridge Folk Festival. Following the explosion of alcohol-free beers into the market it became inevitable the next innovation was likely to be a premium alcohol-free cider,” says Tom Ward, founder and chief executive of alcohol-free drinks retailer Wise Bartender. Sport is seen as a good occasion for cider sales. More people in the UK drink cider while watching sport at a pub than other types of alcohol and the same goes for a date night while a get-together with friends or family is rated as the biggest occasion to drink cider and is identical to doing so while enjoying other alcoholic drinks. Because glucose can’t enter muscle and fat cells properly, cell metabolism also becomes abnormal, and this can contribute to rising blood pressure and cholesterol imbalances.He says: “I would go for a cider that’s been made with eating apples/dessert apples, which is sometimes called an ‘eastern counties-style’ of cider. Often, it’s quite good to do an analogy with wine because we are talking about a fruit fermentation so this one would be a little bit more white wine-esque. For a white wine drinker, this would be an easy substitution for somebody who doesn’t like beer but doesn’t want to have the high alcohol of a wine go to one of these lovely light, clean, crisp, fresh, acid-driven ciders. Something from Kentish Pip or Nightingale, or something like that, would be absolutely fantastic.

A thirst-quenching combination of Discovery, Falstaff, Gala and Jonagold apples are crafted into this crisp, sweet cider. Cook says cider has a completely unique flavour profile compared to beers and wines, and it offers a drinking opportunity for a variety of occasions. Yes, it can be the summer thirst-quencher but can also be that really refreshing drink, something to you have with a meal, something that you can ‘pop’ when celebrating, one to sit and savour, as examples.
