Hard Cider Experiences

There are so many ways to experience hard cider. My favorite usually involve food and seeing new places, but it can also just be a trip around town hunting new hard ciders to try. Ultimately, I’m always looking for inspiration for a new hard cider recipe. Okay, I’m usually also looking for great food but hard cider and food go hand-in-hand.

This is a compilation of my hard cider experiences including tour of cideries, trips near and far, and local outing. If you are looking for ideas or ways to create your own hard cider experience, I hope they inspire you. I’d love to hear about your trips, tours, and experiences.

Also, if you run across some great ciders, please share! I’ll try to find them and maybe I can develop a hard cider recipe that we can use to recreate that experience. For example, I created a plum ginger hard cider recipe. Every time I drink it, I’m transported back to the Woodlands Restaurant near Trafalgar Square in London eating the best Indian food I’ve ever experienced
