Cider Voice 42 - The British Pome Championships

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.
