London...thanks for your reply
Coming from Somerset in the South West of England, the heart of cider country and being raised on it I do know a thing or two about cider. You are right, Benedicta is available but having tried that I would rather wait. A traditional commercial cider, such as Strongbow, the normal serving temperature is around 3-4 degrees centigrade. A farmhouse cider, such as Thatchers, are the best types of cider and is generally served between 4-6 degrees and can even be served up to 14 degrees but the shelf life once opened is very short, (never a problem there!). Then there is Scrumpy....the rawest form of cider that as a lad growing up in Cheddar, one of Somerset's biggest tourist attractions, we used to drink the 'Northerners' under the table. Scrumpy is lethal especially at warmer temperatures and is generally served at around 16 degrees. Finally there is ice cider, such as Magners (Irish) or Bulmer's Ice. Although these are commercial they are excellent and brought the popularity of cider to a level that it rightfully deserves. Ice cider is served around 0-2 degrees and became one of my favorite commercial ciders.
And beleive me, if I had cider over here it would be served ice cold! Cheers!
