My wife enjoys her Cider and is quite a conniosseur. Normandy cider is one she won't touch even at source. She reckons it has too much of a raisin flavour.Her favourite is Sainsbury's cheap and cheerful own brand strong cider though Aspinalls won't be sniffed at.
mikey...you may already know this, but....Lidl has a French promo starting next Thursday (11th Feb) including Normandy cider and Normandy Dry cider.
Might try some myself!
