What is the best place to buy apple juice in bulk for cider?

[oldbloke]

My nearest 2 Costco sell AJ in 10x1 litre packs, both Princes and a cheapo brand (which somebody here used successfully IIRC)

Health food stylee shops will get 5l containers of Suma AJ concentrate, equivalent to 30to40 l of AJ depending how much you dilute it

The cheap stuff works perfectly well in my experience, just avoid preservatives

This cobell.co.uk place sounds interesting has anyone used them for small orders, I dont want a pallet full just a couple of jerry cans of different juices? Any idea of approximate costings?

In an ideal world (or county at least) I'd agree with Crastney's comment, but up here in South Derbyshire, many of the orchards have been grubbed out in the past 75 years, leaving only small pockets left.

On a more positive note, there's a couple in Derby who have planted an orchard for cider production, and are currently advertising for surplus apples this season for the same purpose, so maybe there's hope!

In the mean time, I bought 25kg of juice from Cobell, which arrived today

How much did this cost you ?
