Dig into the long history of cider in Virginia--the Old Dominion's original craft beverage. When the adventurers aboard the Susan Constant, Discovery, and Godspeed stepped foot on Virginian soil they brought with them the traditional English love of cider. Required by statute to plant orchards, the apple played a central part in the development of the colony as its juice became the favored libation of every class of society. From the modest laborer to the table of Thomas Jefferson, cider was Virginia's tipple of choice. More than 400 years later, the libation is enjoying a renaissance. Read about a new generation of makers re-introducing Virginians to their original craft beverage. Local author Alistair Reece tells the story of cider in the Old Dominion, aided by the stunning photography of J. Mark Stewart.

Autorenporträt
Alistair Reece writes mostly about drinking and homebrewing at Fuggled.net. Originally from the Highlands of Scotland, he now lives in rural Virginia, where he is developing worryingly strident opinions about barbecue. Mark Stewart started shooting freelance photography in 1999. Shooting film forced him to concentrate on making a good exposure and on composing "in-camera" so that when he went into his tiny darkroom, he could emerge with handprinted photographic art. Although he long ago moved to digital, Mark brings the same concentration on light, exposure and composition to the work he does today. More of Mark's work is available at blackgeckophotography.com.
