A great aspect of conferences is that you get to meet your heroes in person. At the recent American Cider Association (ACA) meeting CiderCon in Chicago this year I met so many incl Darlene Hayes. And buy her book Apple Tales. #cider #book #author #CiderCon

Should cider have Tannins? A session at CiderCon. No brainer for me growing up on “West Country” ciders from England but it was great to partake in the tastings and discussions. Ciders to me must display apple characteristics so tannins polyphenolic aroma and malic acid. #CiderCon #cider #tannin
A green bottle half-full of Chilean cider sits in a basin of ice. The cider label says “Chilwe, Sidra de Manzana Chilota.”
My biggest takeaway from CiderCon is that I need to plan a trip to Chile asap. 🏃♀️ Their delicious cider has a rich history and the people I met were so dope. I really wish I make their inaugural Pomum Cup in July!

Another successful #cidercon in the books, I believe that was #12 or 13 for us. Inspirational talks with fellow small cider makers, talking about Mistelles, meeting new friends & seeing old #ciderfriends.
Providence. Rhode Island. 2026. That’ll work. 👍🏽 #CiderCon
