Why don’t Danes drink more cider? And why don’t we produce Danish cider from Danish apple varieties?
If you live in Denmark you would probably have heard the forever ongoing talk about our unique cold climate that create apples of a quality never seen anywhere else on this planet. I don’t know if this is right or wrong. But some of it might be true. I have traveled much of the world and never had an apple as rich and balanced as a Danish.
So let us assume that Danish apples are unique: Why don’t we then produce an alcoholic beverage – sparkling and rich – of these apples? I know that many of the se varieties are eating and cooking apples, but who knows if they will make good cider?
My aim is to inspire you and enlighten you in the process of cider making. I want to define a Danish cider culture and develop a Danish cider made from Danish apple varieties. I do research in apple varieties, production methods and techniques, formation of aroma compounds and much more. On this blog I will post ideas, thoughts, finding and results. Feel free to comment on the project.
This is the beginning.
Welcome.
