We go to northern Spain regularly, so I get to sample both types of their cider. There is the natural, still sidra, served in most cafes and restaurants. Poured from a great height to add oxygen. And the pleasantly light and fizzy stuff (like El Gaitero), which we tend to buy and drink at home.
Also, I got four bottles of Weston's for Father's Day. Vintage Organic, Wyld Wood, Stowford Press, Old Rosie. What order should I drink them in?! (probably not all on the same day though)

Another reason why San Sebastian is one of my favourite ever places!Also, I got four bottles of Weston's for Father's Day. Vintage Organic, Wyld Wood, Stowford Press, Old Rosie. What order should I drink them in?! (probably not all on the same day though)

Nothing to do with taste, but I quite regularly have Stowford Press and Old Rosie; so they'd be the two to go first. Stowford is the least 'special'. I've not had Wyld Wood much at all, so would probably have that third (perhaps on a different day) with the Vintage Organic last.My favourite of the four is probably Old Rosie, although prefer it out of a box/pump rather than bottle.

I love proper cider, always try and squeeze a few in at the beer festival, remember a few years ago having rum and whiskey cask which tasted amazing. GF recent picked up Strongbow cloudy, I was all set to berate her but it's actually not to bad, far superior to normal Strongbow (although that's not saying much).

I'm no longer keen on apple cider, pear one seems easier to drink? Tastes sweeter too...which is a bonus.
There is no such thing as pear cider! You are drinking perry. matchmaker said:

[hipster] Old Mout used to be better before they were bought out by one of the big breweries [/hipster] http://www.oldmoutcider.com/global/our-ciders

There's been a bit of an explosion of new ciders lately, but sadly most have gone down the overly sweet fruit flavoured route. Prefer a good Bretton one, or proper old-fashioned West Country stuff.
