The Cider Voice Podcast began in 2020 as a series of interviews with some of the UK’s leading cidermakers, exploring their origins, philosophies and differences and capturing the challenges they were facing from the impact of COVID-19.
During the podcast’s two-year hiatus, aspirational cider and perry has emerged from lockdown in a shape that would have been unimaginable just five or six years ago. All around the world, in pubs, bars, bottleshops, restaurants and peoples’ homes, cider and perry is being consumed and talked about in new ways, by new drinkers and reaching fresh new heights.
Feeling that this inspiring movement deserved the support of its own podcast, we restarted Cider Voice with a fresh format and brief. Now hosted by original founder and fourth generation cidermaker Albert Johnson, along with cider and perry writer, presenter and author Adam Wells and actor, director, harvest-hand and serial enthusiast Justin Wells, we aim through conversations, fun, and more than a few technical hitches, to give voice to the worldwide cider revolution.

With the whole CV team back together again we thought about doing an earnest and serious conversation about apple and pear varieties. But with all the sport on we changed our mind and turned it into a knockout tournament to discover the greatest (British) cider apple or perry pear of them all.
Pitting 32 contenders against each other, Adam tasks Justin and Albert with finding the ultimate.Thorn vs Bulmers Norman?Egremont Russet vs Yellow Huffcap?Moorcroft vs Kingston Black?Stoke Red vs Butt?Which will be left standing at the end?
Get ready for an extreme fund of sporting metaphors:What are the Gareth Southgate and Andy Murray of perry pears?Who is the Joe Root of Cider Voice?Which matchup is like Hamilton winning Silverstone for the 9th time?And which round do our judges just want to dispense with?
Featuring Justin’s pomological insights like ‘Coppy sounds a bit like cuppy’ and Albert’s true feelings on Bisquet, the biggest question of all is will the final go to penalties? Want to know the greatest apple or pear? You'll have to listen.
Shoutout to Swedish cidermaker Hjulsjö 103
