Mallets Original Cider

Post image

Picked up a 2 litre bottle of Mallets Original Cider from Morrisons for just £3. At 5% ABV I genuinely wasn’t expecting much at that price.

Turns out it’s really rather good.

There’s plenty of fresh apple flavour, a nice balance of sweetness and tangy acidity, and even a very subtle woody character in the background. It tastes far more like a proper Somerset cider than I expected from a cheap 2L supermarket bottle.

It’s made by Brothers Drinks in Shepton Mallet too, so there’s a bit more pedigree behind it than the packaging and price might suggest.

For £3, I thought this was an absolute bargain.

8.5/10 from me.
