The Apple Company in Cahir

THE CHAMPAGNE OF APPLE JUICES

This is my favourite apple drink: The Apple Farm of Tipperary Sparkling Apple Juice. I have previously called this the champagne of apple juices and see no reason whatsoever to change my mind after my most recent tasting which came at the weekend when I bought a couple of bottles (€2.50 for a small bottle but well worth it) of this premium apple juice from The Pantry Stand in the Midleton Food Market. The Pantry obviously has good taste as this is available in their Midleton restaurant.

How is it made?
“This is a premium apple juice, made from premium apples, but once the juice is pressed, we treat it a bit differently. Instead of immediately bottling, we carbonate the juice by adding fizz. This is done using carbon dioxide gas, which is pumped into the juice in a special vessel. The juice is then cold-filled into our flip-top bottles, pasteurised, and labelled.”

For more info
, look up their interesting website. I’m far from an expert on apple juices but have tasted quite a few in Europe, particularly in Austria and Switzerland, but never a sparkling one and never one as beautiful as this. This is magic and should be on the lists of more restaurants. Just a beautiful Irish product. The Apple Farm should be very proud of it.
