Pressed, blended, matured and bottled at Myrtle Farm, Thatchers Vintage uses selected bittersweet apples including Tremlett’s Bitter and Somerset Redstreak, as well as lighter more modern varieties including Three Counties and Prince William, to create a premium cider that is deep in flavour, yet light in colour, its richness rounded off with a satisfyingly crisp sparkle.

Three From Thatchers Night At Home Cider#1 of 3. Starting with the strongest and most traditional of the trio, the bottle has vintage 2022 on the rear label. It's of good quality too, sweetish, plenty of apple, which are of decent stock. Attractive in its pale golden appearance with a few blocks of ice popped in for enhancement the maturity of the fruit is particularly pleasant.

500ml bottle from Sainsbury's, Darlington. Clear golden colour, foamy white head that slowly dissipates and aroma of apple, floral note, with hints of skin and core. Taste is sweetish, apple, tangy, lightly acidic, with some core and slight tannin. Medium bodied, light carbonation, drying tangy & light tannic finish. Quite drinkable.

Bottle from Coop, Oldmeldrum. It pours crystal clear fairly deep yellow - gold with a thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, perfumed, powdery apple, fizzy sherbet, dried apple, pear drops, apple tango, soor plooms and some must. The taste is crispy, dry, snappy, touch of acidity, cheap white wine, candied & dried apple, pear drops, melon, sherbety, apple tango, perfumed, hay, some harshness/rawness, tannic and kick of booze with a shirt, dryish finish. Average body and fine, fizzy carbonation. Not a huge amount of depth, but some decent elements to it. Hides the boost well. Exceeded my own expectations.
