Produktbeschreibung
In Cider Planet, Claude Jolicoeur a cider expert, a passionate cider maker, and author of the internationally-acclaimed New Cider Makers Handbook takes readers to the worlds greatest cider regions, providing a guided tour and a deep understanding and appreciation for how this Prince of Beverages is made. Describing orchard practices and specific apple varieties used in different countries, he reveals the long and proud history of the worlds oldest ciderlands. He also profiles different cider styles and rituals and learns from some of the most knowledgeable producers and local cider experts in each country.Cider, though, is no longer just a traditional European drink. In recent years it has caught on in other parts of the globe and Jolicoeur talks about these new and emerging regions, which are building upon the old traditions and creating new ones of their own. Jolicoeur also explores the most revered areas for making pear cider or perry, and he even transports readers to Kazakhstan, famous as the birthplace of the domestic apple.
Autorenporträt
Claude Jolicoeur is the author of The New Cider Maker's Handbook, which has been acclaimed worldwide as a major reference on the topic of cider making. In French, he has authored Du pommier au cidre (From Apple Tree to Cider) and collaborated to the collective work La transformation du cidre au Québec (Cider Processing in Quebec). A mechanical engineer and research scientist by profession, he started in the late 1980s making cider as a hobby. Since then, he has accumulated vast experience, always searching to obtain the highest quality possible. His ciders have earned many awards at competitions, including Best of Show at the prestigious Great Lakes International Cider and Perry Competition (GLINTCAP). Claude has traveled widely throughout the Cider Planet, is regularly invited to be a guest speaker or cider judge at international cider festivals and events, and actively participates in discussion forums such as the Cider Workshop. He currently works on the evaluation of wild native apples for the establishment of collections of high-quality cider apple varieties that are well adapted to the conditions of eastern Canada. He lives in Quebec City.
