In October 2007 I went around the world in 40 days. I drank cider with ex-commandos in Devon, I watched Morris Men drinking Old Rosie and doing their thing in Much Marcle and listened to an old man sing about cider in Carhampton. I saw cider being made in Brittany, splashed it about in Spain, ate food cooked with it in Germany and even picked the odd apple in America. Read all about my cider trip and much more.
If you want to make alcoholic cider in the home you can try my Dry Sparkling cider recipe. It tastes beautiful, is easy to make and, don't worry, I also tell you how to make sweet, medium sweet, dry and sparkling cider with no equipment at all.
Reviews: 'This book is a great mix of everything to do with cider - from the author's own life and research, travelling around the world to discover the history and cultures of making and drinking cider, to reviews of different drops, including from his own highly successful farm in the South Australian countryside, to instructions on how to make your own. The author's entertaining, friendly style is highly engaging, so much so that even if you didn't think much about cider before reading it, you'll at least come away better informed, probably with a smile on your face, and likely newly converted to one of the oldest - and still highly popular - alcoholic drinks in the world.'
'This is a thoroughly enjoyable book. Everything you ever wanted to know about cider and cider culture. After reading this book I couldn't wait to get some fermenting going on and in the mean-time start exploring the types of cider we have in America.'
'This book provides a very interesting and entertaining romp around the cider world. It is unpretentious and deals with a large range of cider types and aspects. However, it is not about the weak fizzy commercial stuff. Thorogood focuses on real cider brewed from real apples with none of the commercial trickery. If you want to travel the cider world from the comfort of your reading chair, then this book is for you. The bonuses include some tips for making cider from an insider and food recipes that use cider.'
