Myself and a friend in mead stopped off at McHugh's off license in Kilbarack today.
We got a bottle of Duche de Longueville Cidre de Recoltant single varietal cider. I usually don't like cider and have never had one that I thought was great until today. I have obviously been drinking the wrong ciders. This stuff was absolutely lovely.
It's from Normandy. I've been in France many times and know that they keep a lot of the nicest wine for themselves. So this probably isn't even the best cider you can get. I can see a trip cycling around Normandy touring the cider producers in my future.
