Hard Cider

If there were one word that could sum up the category of hard cider until very recently, it would probably be “afterthought.” Given the wide range of styles, flavor profiles and versatility that cider offers, this is truly shocking. With fall unofficially underway, now is the perfect time to explore this fermented beverage in all its complexity and deliciousness.

I spoke to a remarkable gardener recently — Annie Martin, or as she prefers to be known, “Mossin’ Annie.” Based in Pisgah Forest, in the Appalachian Mountains of western North Carolina, she operates a moss garden design and installation service.
What she creates are rare intersections of natural beauty and environmental benefit.

Just getting into the exciting world of craft beer? You might not be familiar with the tongue-tickling category of sours. If the words “sour” and “beer” together do not immediately entice, you are not alone. Sours can be a divisive subject, even among beer lovers. Within the category there is a wide variety of styles, making it laborious to narrow down what you may or may not love.

Just as the season begins to turn and that first chilly wind hits, these bodaciously brilliant blooms arrive for summer’s last hurrah. Anyone who has been nursing their dahlias since late May, as I have, knows how exciting this moment is.

For years I had seen the pale green antique truck with the words “Howden Farm” painted on the side in a retro-chic font.  When I saw it in LaBonne’s parking lot I’d be thrilled to know there was a fresh stash of just picked butter and sugar corn waiting to be grabbed by the dozen from the corn bin at the front of the store.

Got $100 burning a hole in your pocket? There’s a mind-blowing bottle of sparkling wine for that. Need a host gift and don’t want to break the bank? Just $15 will get you something both crowd-pleasing and delicious.
This does beg a very interesting question: What exactly are you paying for, and why? The wide variation of both price and quality are due to many factors. The two primary are how it was made and where it was made.

Good Wine in Cool Cans

If the thought of wine in a can makes you bristle, you are not alone. Immediately, thoughts of a vaguely aluminum taste lingering in your end of the day reward might enter your mind. Then there’s the romance and ritual of a bottle of wine: the selection, the popping of the cork and the pouring of the glass. Cracking a can of wine as you would a Bud Light just does not have the same effect. Quality questions also abound: would you ever find a wine that was actually good in a can?
