From Ukcider

Jack Ratt Scrumpy is a variety of bottled cider made by Lyme Bay Cider Co. in Axminster, Devon.

About

Jack Ratt Scrumpy cider is a still, medium, filtered cider which won the prestigious three Star Gold at The Great Taste Awards 2009 - the first ever cider to win this accolade.

The traditional, still fruity cider has a softness that is given to the flavour by having left the cider on the lees so a secondary malolactic fermentation takes place.

The Guild of Fine Food, who organise the annual Great Taste Awards, said "a three-star gold is the highest level of award any producer can aspire to and is recognised as the definitive independent accreditation of quality." The Guild is the UK trade association for anyone making or selling top quality local, regional and speciality food and drink.

Using freshly pressed juice of locally grown, traditional cider apples such as Dabinett, Kingston Black and Yarlington Mill, Jack Ratt Scrumpy is just one of their range of ciders.
