In the states, "hard cider" has been available for years... Especially brands from the UK... There's Woodpecker, Strongbow, Magner's, Hornsby's, etc...
It has that distinct taste of Martinelli's Apple Juice!

The taste is quite unique though - different to the ciders we have here in the UK. It reminds me of a cider that we used to have here that was actually made from pears and not apples. It has that same taste about it. Niiiiice!!!
I've had some of the ciders available here... none quite measure up to benedicta. i'm flying out there for a couple weeks soon so i will see what i can dig up... of course with a blue bottle in my hand.
my bad... i am in the us now going to the dr in a couple weeks
