I was in the UK last week visiting friends and got introduced to Thatchers Cider. It was incredibly drinkable and high quality compared to the regular muck we get here (Bulmers/Scrumpy etc.). Is there anywhere in Ireland (preferably Galway) that stocks varieties of this cider?

What I had was Katie I was told, and Katie Rose which was a Rosé. It was really excellent stuff.

DrinkStore has a decent selection of ciders, including one from Thatchers plus plenty of the new generation of proper Irish ciders. They deliver nationwide.

I've heard David Llewellyn has recently released an all-Katy varietal but I've not seen it for sale.

It used to be fairly well stocked in ireland up to a few years ago but never really got off the ground over here, which is a pity because it was absolutely stunning. thatchers gold was my personal favourite, so crisp and fresh, great with pork chops.
People are finally starting to see the light now, and are moving away from bulmers thank god, and craft brewers here are producing great ciders. stonewell, longueville are two excellent examples well worth a try and are reasonably well available

Toby's (Armagh) Cider have brought out a Katy Cider. It will be available in some Dublin outlets soon.
