Mike,
Try this link... http://www.talisman.com/cider/
<http://www.talisman.com/cider/> I get a digest of letter, etc.. every
month regarding your area of interest. They have access to archived letters
and information and a way for you to subscribe to receive this information
yourself. I cannot recall verbatim regarding the varieties of apples to use
but the last few months of the digest has had several discussion about
varieties to try.
Hope that helps,
Brian

Subject: [nafex] cider apples
I'm interested in producing good hard cider and know that it is
essential to use cider apples. I'm from the east and am aware of one
orchard of about 15 acres dedicated to these varieties located in new
England but am unaware of any other orchards elswhere. Does anyone
have a guess as to how many acres of cider trees exist out of the
461,000 acres Dept of Agric. says are in existence today in the US?
Personally I've got about 50 of these in my 1 year old orchard so
maybe I'm the second largest grower in the US BUT I doubt it.
I'm also looking for referrences re varieties of American cider trees
that were used when hard cider was the drink of choice many years
ago.
Any help would be appreciated.
Mike
