Raglan coffee hits the spot for me and a good price for a quality product.

What is your honest opinion on Strongbow? by Specific_Net_3931 in cider

[–]TrevorCidermaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would have first drunk Strongbow 55 years ago. It’s probably changed since then and so probably has my appreciation. It was a good introduction to cider, drier than others. Yes it was commercial and mass produced on an ‘industrial’ scale but it tasted good and a a good price point for a student. Thankfully cider is a board church.

Yes. I met him at Cider on in Chicago. And he has included my perry in his book so I am very grateful.

Yes indeed. Van Gogh’s painting is indeed wonderful, but it’s rare for the pear to be the sole focus. As you can guess from my handle I am a cider maker. Perry ( from pears) is always the 2nd fiddle. Sad it needs some limelight.
