I've now tried 99 ciders thanks in part to the 31 that I tried on my trip to Europe in 2023 (16 of those in England). The British Cider Championship was held at the Royal Bath & West Show in Somerset. Besides the professional judging for the championship there was a public judging of a flight of 5. You merely picked your favourite cider, you didn't rank them. These were Rawlins, Moons, Bollhayes, Blackmore Vale, and Dowdings.
I voted for Rawlins as my favourite of the five. Dry with a light flavour but very good. 7.5/10

| Moons - this was not too bad but had little flavour. 6/10 Bollhayes - just an average cider, nothing special. 6.5/10 Blackmore Vale - this was good quality but far too sweet for me. 6/10 Dowdings - this was too light with little flavour. 5/10 |
