June 3rd, 2026, is World Cider Day!
Cider is as old as the apple trees John Chapman (better known as Johnny Appleseed) tended to in America in the early nineteenth century.
Actually, this fermented apple beverage has roots that go back even further. As the story goes, when the Romans invaded England around 55 BCE, they discovered Celts already enjoying cider.
Nowadays, cider is enjoyed in many forms. From dry to sweet and spiced to hopped, « hard » cider runs the entire gamut of flavor and aroma.
