Thatchers Apple and Blackcurrant Cider

Thatchers Apple & Blackcurrant Cider stood out as an ideal drink for summer. Designed for those warm, lazy afternoons when you want something light yet full of flavour, this cider delivers an easy balance of fruitiness and refreshment.

From the moment it’s poured, the presentation is inviting — a soft, berry-tinted hue with a gentle sparkle that looks as good as it tastes. The aroma bursts with ripe blackcurrant, supported by a subtle hint of apple sweetness. It’s immediately fresh and enticing, the sort of scent that promises a crisp, cooling sip.

On the palate, the cider opens with a juicy hit of blackcurrant that gives way to a smooth, mellow apple finish. It’s undeniably sweet, but not cloying, and the light carbonation keeps it lively and refreshing. While it leans toward the fruitier side of the cider spectrum, it’s precisely that easy-drinking nature that makes it so enjoyable. Served chilled, it’s effortless and satisfying — a clear crowd-pleaser for outdoor gatherings, picnics, and relaxed evenings in the garden.

Our team found that while it may not appeal to fans of dry, traditional ciders, Thatchers Apple & Blackcurrant excels in what it sets out to do: deliver a bright, juicy, and uncomplicated cider experience that fits perfectly into a summer’s day.
