Cider is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermented juice of apples. The juice of any variety of apples can be used to make cider, but cider apples are best known for it. The adding of sugar or spare fruit before a second fermentation amplifies the alcoholic content of cider. In Europe, Cider is popular in the United Kingdom, especially in the West Country, and widely available. The UK has the world's highest per capita consumption, as well as principal cider-producing companies. Cider is also popular Ireland, Portugal, France, Spain and Switzerland. Central Europe also has its own types of cider with Rhineland-Palatinate and Hesse producing a particularly tart version known as Apfelwein.
Cider alcohol content varies from
There are various flavours of ciders available. Ciders can be classified from dry to sweet. Their appearance ranges from cloudy with sediment to completely clear, and their colour ranges from almost clear to amber to brown. The differences in clarity and colour are mostly due to filtering between pressing and fermentation. Modern, mass-produced ciders closely resemble sparkling wine in appearance. Brands that are more traditional tend to be darker and cloudier. Some apple varieties will produce a clear cider without any need for filtration. Both sparkling and still ciders are made; the sparkling variety is the more widespread. Almost colourless, white cider has the same apple juice content as conventional cider. Its preparation is tough since the cider maker has to blend various apples to create a clearer liquid. White ciders tend to be sweeter and more refreshing. The descriptor black usually comes after the brand name such as Union Black and Barnstormer Black.
The production process involves three steps:
Scratting and pressing
Fermentation
Blending and bottling
In Switzerland, cider is called Suure, Most or Saft in the German-speaking part, Cidre in the Romandy and Sidro in the Italian-speaking regions. The drink was made popular in the 19th century when apple production increased due to progress in pomology. At the turn of the century, cider consumption was huge per person. In the 1920s, advantages in the pasteurisation of apple juice and the emerging temperance movement led to a strong decrease of cider production.
Emerging and Existing Trends
Today, typical Swiss cider consists of fermented apple juice mixed with 30% fresh juice which is added for sweetness. This drink is then pasteurised and force-carbonated. Imported cider is not common as according to Swiss laws cider must contain more than 70% of juice. With the revival of sales of cider which began in 2014, specifically the emergence of so-called ‘new cider’, which has involved in the redefinition and repositioning of cider, the category continued to record positive total volume growth in 2015. In Switzerland, Suure Moscht, or apple wine, has a time-honoured tradition, especially among the elderly population. The emergence of ‘new cider’ brands such as Somersby, however, and the increasing interest in these products among so-called ‘millennial’ consumers led to the significant diversification and repositioning of the products in the category over the review period.
Ramseier Suisse continued to lead cider in 2015 with a total volume share of close to thirty percent and the domestic player also managed to avoid severe declines in its volume share, even under increasing pressure from ‘new cider’ brand Somersby. Similarly, domestic company Mosterei Moehl maintained its runner-up position in the category in 2015, losing some volume share to Somersby. Cider is expected to develop in a rather multifaceted fashion over the forecast period as traditional domestic products are set to continue competing against the influx of brands which can be categorised as ‘new cider’ or ‘English cider’. Meanwhile, it is anticipated that moderate positive growth will be recorded in the category over the forecast period. This is due to the marketing efforts of ‘new cider’ brands in an attempt to redefine the consumer perception of cider. Although the Swiss cider market declined again in 2013, the imports did well. Domestic cider continues to be a predominantly a rural product.
Reasons for the observed trends
The summer of 2015 saw the hottest temperatures since records began in Switzerland in 1864. Despite the record temperatures, tourism during the summer also dropped impacting consumption. Domestic brands held the share of throat across total cider sales despite continuing with a declining trend in 2015. All national brands failed to show significant growth as the segment continued to lose out against international brands. Super premium volumes continued to rise as the significance of imported brands became more apparent for the Swiss consumer. Hence, with an increasing competition from foreign companies this market may see a decline in coming future in Switzerland.
There are various innovations done in the cider market that may extend its base in monetary and volumetric terms by 2020
