Blackthorne cider is a classic example of a cheap cider. Its not really associated with teenage drinking though.
Anyway first impressions is it is cheap at about £2 from Tesco and you get a reasonable size bottle. The bottle is a bog standard black bottle and it’s not really appealing. You can get better bottles like glass which look much better but these are at higher prices. At 6% the cider isn’t as strong as the king of ciders, that is white lighting for you lems out there.
As you open the bottle you smell the typical shit smell of cider. As you take your first gulp of it expecting the worse, you become surprised at the reasonable taste. It’s not really that strong or sour like the other ciders. It takes quite a bit more to get pissed than other ciders but when you are you know. You don’t get wasted unless you drink a lot with it but you can have a good laugh with it.
Overall Blackthorn is a classic and is very drinkable. I will give it 8/10. It would have got a higher rating but you have to drink quite a lot of it to get fucked.
