Chester’s Cider is a Russian brand made according to British technology, under the control of British specialists. But how does this drink correspond to English traditions? We will talk about this now.
Recipes for cider from apples, cherries, pears.
English cider from the Moscow region
Cider “Chester” is produced by NPO “Agroservice”.
The company is located in Ramenskoye near Moscow and is known for its brands of sparkling wines. But in recent years, the company has turned its attention to other niches. The result was Chester’s.
The drink is based on the classic English technology described in 1885.
The raw material for it is reconstituted fruit juices. At the same time, the manufacturer does not use alcohol or beer base.
As a result, the Chester series is distinguished by a low alcohol level of 5.5% and a pleasant fruity taste.

Chester’s Apple Sweet Cider
Classic sweet English cider made from apple juice.
Fortress – 5.5%. Color is golden caramel.

Chester’s Apple Semi Dry
Semi-dry cider based on apple juice. It has a dark golden color and a balanced sweet and sour taste.
The aroma is apple, without a hint of flavors. The aftertaste is soft, sour.
This drink is best served as an aperitif. It also goes well with cheeses, seafood or English appetizers.
But for meat dishes – it is too tender. Especially when it comes to barbecue.
Chester`s Pear Sweet
Sweet pear cider, also known as poiret. The drink is dark yellow in color with the aroma of ripe pear.
The taste is sweet to cloying, somewhat reminiscent of Duchess.
Poiret is best served with desserts, especially pastries. It can also be used as a base for cocktails.
But keep in mind, the drink is highly carbonated, which means that alcohol will be much more noticeable.
Chester’s Cherry Semi Sweet
Refreshing cherry cider, according to classical technology. Unlike most analogues, it is made on the basis of cherry juice, and not a mixture of apple and cherry juices.
The drink has a dark cherry color and a bright taste of ripe cherries. The aroma is fruity, without excesses. Drinks easily and pleasantly.
The company itself positions Cherry as women’s alcohol, but men can also like it.
Fish, meat dishes and salads will keep him in good company, making this cider an excellent choice for a spring picnic.
And finally, remember that cider is best drunk cold.
Low temperature (10–12˚С) better reveals its taste and aroma. It will also give you a strong kiss of freshness.
