Scrumpy Jack

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Scrumpy Jack is a popular brand of cider that originated in the United Kingdom. It is known for its strong, robust flavor and high alcohol content. The cider is made from a blend of bitter sweet apples, which gives it a unique taste that is both sweet and tart.

History[edit | edit source]

Scrumpy Jack was first introduced in the 1980s by Bulmers, a well-known cider making company based in Hereford, England. The brand quickly gained popularity due to its distinctive taste and high alcohol content, which is typically around 6%.

Production[edit | edit source]

The production process of Scrumpy Jack involves the fermentation of apples. The apples are first crushed and then pressed to extract the juice. The juice is then fermented for several weeks to allow the sugars to convert into alcohol. The cider is then filtered and pasteurized before being bottled.
