Some people like nothing more than a cold glass of cider on a hot summer’s day. Whether, you have been walking the highways and byways, cycling the cols, swimming in the surf or running up “that” hill, cider can be both refreshing and rejuvenating. The Trading Post are discounting Thatcher’s Gold Cider for the whole of August. The price of each case of twelve bottles has been reduced by 10% for the entire month.
“Gold is a treasure, and he who possesses it does all he wishes to in this world and succeeds in helping souls into paradise” – Christopher Columbus
People believe in many different manifestations of paradise. These vary from deeply spiritual and religious concepts to simple, human experiences. The Judeo-Christian and Islamic ideas of paradise are variously considered to be derived from the word for garden, or park, with the higher Gan Eden, Garden of Eden and Jannah al-Firdaus being representations of the highest place of contentment one can attain.
More earthly, but perhaps no less important, ideas of paradise are also commonly held, varying from “a kind of library” (Jorge Luis Borges) or “a state of mind” (Dolly Parton), to a city “where the grass is green and the girls are pretty” (Guns n’ Roses). Paradise can be subjective and it is therefore perfectly reasonable to think a glass of cold cider, on a sunny day, in a beautiful place (perhaps a garden), with people you love, might be a decent approximation of paradise, however comparatively fleeting the experience may be.
Thatcher’s Gold is a refreshing, crisp, traditional British cider made in the apple-growing heartland of North Somerset. Whilst it is probably asinine to repurpose Christopher Columbus’ statement to suggest that Thatcher’s Gold can “[help] souls into paradise” and it is certainly not true that drinking cider is a way of permanently improving your life, it is probably alright to believe that (combined with a number of complementary circumstances) a glass of cider might be part of a halcyon moment. Simply order Thatcher’s Gold online between 1st and 31st August 2022 to receive an instant 10% discount, with our compliments.
