Petition Bring in a legal definition for real craft cider

More details

With the proliferation of "ciders" perporting to be artisan, craft or real the government should create a legal definition of "craft cider" stating that the unconcentrated apple (or pear where applicable) should be a minimum of 85% with minimal additives. This will allow real cider enthusiasts to ensure that the product they are drinking is a genuine craft cider. It will also enable small craft cider producers to differentiate their products from other mass produced "ciders" with a much lower apple content or a high percentage of concentrate.
