Cider Apple
Cider apples are a group of apple cultivars grown for their use in the production of cider (referred to as "hard cider" in the United States). Cider apples are distinguished from "cookers" and "eaters", or dessert apples, by their bitterness or dryness of flavour, qualities which make the fruit unpalatable but can be useful in cidermaking. Some apples are considered to occupy more than one category. In the United Kingdom the Long Ashton Research Station categorised cider apples in 1903 into four main types according to the proportion of tannins and malic acid in the fruit. For cider production it is important that the fruit contains high sugar levels which encourage Fermentation (food), fermentation and raise the final Ethanol, alcohol levels. Cider apples therefore often have higher sugar levels than Table apple, dessert and cooking apples. It is also considered important for cider apples to contribute tannins, which add depth to the finished cider's flavour. Classification o ...

Cider Apples (21600773933)
Cider ( ) is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermented juice of apples. Cider is widely available in the United Kingdom (particularly in the West Country) and the Republic of Ireland. The UK has the world's highest per capita consumption, as well as the largest cider-producing companies. Ciders from the South West of England are generally higher in alcoholic content. Cider is also popular in many Commonwealth countries, such as India, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. As well as the UK and its former colonies, cider is popular in Portugal (mainly in Minho and Madeira), France (particularly Normandy and Brittany), Friuli, and northern Spain (specifically Asturias). Central Europe also has its own types of cider with Rhineland-Palatinate and Hesse producing a particularly tart version known as Apfelwein. In the U.S., varieties of fermented cider are often called ''hard cider'' to distinguish alcoholic cider from non-alcoholic apple cider or "sweet cider", also made from ap ...

Bramley Apple
''Malus domestica'' (Bramley's Seedling, commonly known as the Bramley apple, or simply Bramley, Bramleys or Bramley's) is a cultivar of apple that is usually eaten cooked due to its sourness. The variety comes from a pip planted by Mary Ann Brailsford. ''The Concise Household Encyclopedia'' states, "Some people eat this apple raw in order to cleanse the palate, but Bramley's seedling is essentially the fruit for tart, pie, or dumpling."''The Concise Household Encyclopedia'' (ca. 1935), Amalgamated Press Ltd, London Once cooked, however, it has a lighter flavour. A peculiarity of the variety is that when cooked it becomes golden and fluffy. Vitamin C 15mg/100g. Tree Bramley's Seedling apple trees are large, vigorous, spreading and long-lived. They tolerate some shade. The apples are very large, two or three times the weight of a typical dessert apple. They are flat with a vivid green skin that becomes red on the side that receives direct sunlight. The tree is resistant to apple sc ...

Cap Of Liberty (apple)
Cap of Liberty, also known by the name Red Soldiers or Bloody Soldier,Copas (2001) ''Somerset Pomona: The Cider Apples of Somerset'', Dovecote, p.29 is a traditional cider apple cultivar originating in the Martock area of central Somerset. Characteristics The cultivar makes a medium-sized tree with a distinctive habit, having several long, unbranching, spreading limbs.Williams and Child, "The Identification of Cider Apples" in ''Annual Report of the Long Ashton Research Station'', 1965, 82 It bears in mid season. The small fruit have a strong red flush on a yellow ground, a shape between conical and cylindrical and are of full 'bittersharp' type, being high in tannin and malic acid levels. 'Cap of Liberty' is similar to and may be related to other central Somerset varieties such as Lambrook Pippin. It is considered to be of 'vintage' quality, i.e. capable of making single varietal cider. The tree is extremely prone to apple scab, with some scab and consequent die-back being almo ...

Kingston Black Apple
The Kingston Black, also known as Black Taunton, is a cultivar of apple originating from the United Kingdom and used in making cider. The name of the cultivar comes from the apples' dark red or purplish skin, though despite the name, the fruit does not have a black hue. History The apple was first grown in orchards around the parish of Kingston St Mary in Somerset, whose inhabitants referred to it simply as the "black apple".Lawrence, B. ''Quantock Country'', 1952, p. 60 left, At Priorwood Garden Kingston Black is capable of making a distinctive single-variety cider,Copas, L. ''Somerset Pomona'', 2001, p. 45 and its value in cidermaking meant that by the early 19th century it became more well known. By 1950 the Long Ashton Research Station referred to it as "more widely grown than any other cider apple" in the West of England.''Annual Report'' of the Long Ashton Research Station, 1950, p.186 Despite this popularity, one former Long Ashton staff member wrote that many thought the ...

Foxwhelp
The Foxwhelp is a very old cider apple cultivar, originating in the west Midlands of England. History This is one of the oldest surviving varieties of cider apple; it is first mentioned in John Evelyn's ''Advertisements Concerning Cider'' in his work ''Pomona'' of 1664, in which it is commented that "cider for strength ..is best made of the ''Fox-whelp'' of the ''Forest of Dean'', but which comes not to be drunk until two or three years old".Hogg, R. British Pomology 1851, p.89 It is usually said to have originated in Gloucestershire or Herefordshire. By the early eighteenth century, it had become one of the most prized cultivars for cider: a letter written by a Hugh Stafford in 1727 states "I have been told by a person of credit that a hogshead of cider from this fruit has been sold in London for £8 or eight guineas, and that often a hogshead of French wine has been given in exchange for the same quantity of Fox-whelp. It is said to contain a richer and more cordial juice tha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
