P Dub's Profile

My English roots bristle at the expression "hard" cider. I don't really understand the difference between American "cider" and apple juice.

I'm very pleased to see more local cider farms popping up. Beside the Merridale on Vancouver Island, referenced above, there's another bunch on the island called Sea Cider. Their "Kings and Spies" is nice and dry. (Although not as dry as proper West Country cider.)

In Ontario, the Wapoos Cidery has been working for many years down on Quinte's Isle.

And I've started making my own, which is an incredibly simple process. Real West Country style, flat, dry cider. The "hard" part is self-evident when you drink it.
