{"title":"Kent Cider","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat makes Kent Cider so special, you ask? Well, it’s a matter of heritage. Kent has a longstanding cider-making tradition that goes back centuries. Early maps show a ‘pomarium’ in Canterbury as early as 1165, and it was these monastic orchards that spread the culture of making cider to the rest of the United Kingdom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKent is the UK’s number one apple-growing region, with a perfect climate and rich soil for orchards to flourish. The proximity to London, a city perpetually thirsty for some fine cider helps too. Dessert and culinary apple varieties – so those you can eat and cook with –  have always been the centre of production, unlike other regions that have focused on varieties developed purely for cider-making purposes. This gives Kentish Cider a white wine-like quality with fresh acidity, lighter colour, and a bright fruity character. At the moment, Kentish cider is on the rise, and new producers are proudly entering the cider trade with both modern and traditional Kentish Ciders.
