I have felt for some time now that cider has grown in popularity and it is high time that a distinction was made for the discerning. Our cider is, of course (!!) 100% fresh pressed juice Jim Callender on "Real cider" http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/topic/real-cider#post-144 Wed, 16 Feb 2011 00:31:14 +0000 Jim Callender 144@http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/ Hi, many thanks for taking the time to comment! This definition kind of already exists - You may want to add your thoughts to this post - <a href="http://www.real-cider.co.uk/whats-in-cider/" rel="nofollow">http://www.real-cider.co.uk/whats-in-cider/</a> If you think we should make this topic more visible let us know.

Might I suggest the best measure is fresh pressed juice content which could be set at a minimum of say 80% which is well beyond most larger commercial producers but should be easily achieved by craft producers.

I would love to know who as in MFR's real cider that is deep in colour and cloudy.real cider as made back in the ole day's who makes it I have tried thatchers Katy cider but is this craft or industrial as some call it? I have also tried scrumpy jack cider but found this off the mark of katy cider which has a nice palate of flavour.I think to list real cider producers is to give people a real informed choice of what to buy obviously I canot buy real local cider unless they deliver haha,but please list some of the old real cider producers so that people like me can buy their products Cider Wrangler on "Hello from Real Cider" http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/topic/hello-from-real-cider#post-24 Mon, 30 Nov 2009 06:21:59 +0000 Cider Wrangler 24@http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/ My site is <a href="http://www.beerwrangler.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.beerwrangler.com</a> - It's a fairly recent thing so I am slowly building content (I am sure you realise how time consuming it is to run a site - especially with a paying job as well!) so it's nice to see fellow enthusiasts creating good websites too Jim Callender on "Hello from Real Cider" http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/topic/hello-from-real-cider#post-21 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 03:00:41 +0000 Jim Callender 21@http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/ Thanks for the kind feedback cider wrangler! We will be adding exciting information for all cider fans all the time. No doubt you have heard the big debate about pear cider vs. perry. Perry is a wonderful drink nonetheless. If you have any photos of your cider making feel free to add them to the flickr group. ps. what is your web site? Jim C. Cider Wrangler on "Hello from Real Cider" http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/topic/hello-from-real-cider#post-18 Fri, 27 Nov 2009 16:50:30 +0000 Cider Wrangler 18@http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/ Hi Jim I really like and appreciate your site. As a craft beer fan, I am expanding my horizons towards craft cider and perry and hope to start reviewing them on my site (which I now have a link to yours- hope that's ok) I am a home brewer and hope to make a batch of cider soon as a friend bought a small 2nd hand cider press recentlty! Do you plan to include Perry info too? as this is a great drink and the real stuff deserves to get out there and drunk, instead of the mass produced rubbish. Anyway keep up the good work! Jim Callender on "Hello from Real Cider" http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/topic/hello-from-real-cider#post-13 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 17:07:43 +0000 Jim Callender 13@http://www.real-cider.co.uk/forum/ So, you have found the forum, and want to learn all about apples, cider, and maybe even cider making? Perhaps you have been enjoying cider longer than me, probably! About me - I'm a 30 something techie guy, that loves being outdoors. Currently my day job involves handling various client projects for my web company <a href="http://www.callendercreates.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.callendercreates.com</a> which I am director of. My love of cider was in the early 2000's, when a friend introduced me to the many types of delicious Somerset ciders. Hecks, Wilkins and his own produce were put in front of me, that evening began in a cider appreciation night, and the rest is history. I like to attend as many cider events, festivals as possible. There are a great range of beer and cider festivals, where you will be able to sample the good stuff, perhaps local cider to you. My favourite cider festival is probably Welsh cider festival (<a href="http://bit.ly/453XUK" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/453XUK</a>) every May bank holiday. This year we have also started making our own cider (<a href="http://bit.ly/fVHnN" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/fVHnN</a>) which we hope will encourage our learning of the production process of cider making on a small scale. More details about me and the real cider site here - <a href="http://www.real-cider.co.uk/about-realcider/" rel="nofollow">http://www.real-cider.co.uk/about-realcider/</a> All the best with your cider journey, let's hope we can champion the cider movement together!
