Henry Westons Vintage 8.6%.. I like a cider on a Sunday, I'd normally just have one but last week it was 3 for £5 at the local shop, so I got 3. I stayed up watching Narcos on Netflix and really can't remember a thing.
FTR, Henry Westons and Aspall.

As for 'traditional' cider I'll always go for a Westons Vintage, or if I'm feeling hardcore then maybe a Rum Cask cider. Stowford Press/Scrumpy Jack/Strongbow (fuck you) for standard cider tipple.
For the bottled fruit ciders you get at the offie/supermarket, it's hard to beat Rekorderlig, although Old Mout is amazing as well.
But I'm a but of a cider fan - I loved living in Norwich as there are so many options from Norfolk and Suffolk.
Aspal was a bit fizzy for me, and a touch bitter.

Anyway I rarely used to drink at home, just didn't bother for years unless the wifey forced me to. I've had a lot of time off work over the last month while the wife's been away and felt a bit thirsty one warm day. 3 Thatchers or Westons fora fiver, why not? By God it was a revelation. I'll try one of each I thought Thatchers Gold, Vintage and Katy, not noticing the last 2 are over 8%. Woke up next morning, no headache. Yay! (I get a stinking hangover from a pint sometimes, hangover roulette) let's repeat the experiment with Westons in case it was a fluke, same result.
So am now in month 2 of the experiment and I have concluded that drinking at home is now OK and cider is the tool of choice.
I fancy trying a few "boutique" ciders along the vein of Thatchers or Westons.
Any recommendations?
I designed the labels too.
