Ria's Cider Judging Summary

  1. Decide beforehand "The protocol?" is everyone in agreement to that protocol?
  2. Judging is not about what you like as a judge, but "Is the cider made well?"
  3. Leave your ego at the door.
  4. What can be Best in Show?
    1. If the competition is open to all styles, then every style is a viable competitor to be a Best in Show for that competition.
