Knights Premium Cider 4x500ml

A full case of 4 cans built for people who take their cider seriously. Knights Premium Cider 4x500ml delivers a medium-dry, apple-forward drink crafted by a master cider maker from a blend of bittersweet and dessert apples, all at a robust 8.4% ABV that puts it firmly in the strong cider bracket.

About Knights Premium Cider 4x500ml

Production takes place at the Aston Manor Cider Mill in Stourport-on-Severn, Worcestershire, where the Knights recipe has been refined around a specific blend of bittersweet and dessert apples chosen for their balance of tartness and natural sweetness. The cider is naturally gluten free and completely free from artificial colours, sweeteners and flavours, making Knights a cleaner option than many competing strong ciders that rely on additives to hit their flavour targets.

Each 500ml can holds a 8.4% ABV pour, giving the full 4-pack enough strength and volume to cover large gatherings, festival weekends or simply a well-stocked fridge for regular cider drinkers. Knights cider is suitable for vegans, vegetarians and coeliacs, broadening its appeal across a range of dietary needs. The medium-dry taste profile sits in comfortable territory for people who find sweet ciders too sugary and bone-dry options too sharp, landing Knights in a balanced middle ground that keeps you reaching for the next can.

Knights Premium Cider 4x500ml Taste Profile

• Rich golden colour with natural clarity that shows off the real apple base behind every can of Knights cider.
• The nose is fresh and orchard-like, with ripe apple aromas sitting alongside a gentle tartness and a hint of natural sweetness.
• On the palate, a smooth blend of bittersweet and dessert apple flavours creates a rounded, medium-dry cider with genuine depth.

Serving Knights Premium Cider 4x500ml

• Chill the cans well and crack one open straight from the fridge for the simplest serve, letting the Knights cider speak for itself without any additions.
• Pour over a tall glass of ice on warmer days to keep your Knights cider cold and slightly diluted, which can help balance the higher ABV across a longer session.
• Pair this cider with roast pork, strong cheddar, apple-based dishes or a traditional ploughman's lunch, where the tartness and body of Knights complement rich, savoury food.
• Use the 4-pack format to supply house parties, camping trips or festival weekends where a reliable, full-flavoured cider is the priority over variety.
• Because of the 8.4% strength, treat Knights cider with the same pacing you would a strong beer, keeping water on hand and spacing your cans across the evening.

Knights Premium Cider 4x500ml is a straightforward proposition: real apples, no artificial nonsense and a strength that means every can makes its presence felt. For committed cider drinkers who want flavour and punch in one package, this is a case worth keeping in the house.
