The Aftermovie! by @jetskeamijs 2021's harvest wa The Aftermovie! by @jetskeamijs 2021's harvest was celebrated in a weekend with dinner and lunch, accompanied by performances: music, theater, a lecture, and tastings. Food pairing in seasonal theme brought people together around nature's plenty. A harvest bowl was a physical display to celebrate the harvest and the products that we make from it.

Creating a culture around cider, in order to prese Creating a culture around cider, in order to preserve orchards, that's what we aim to do at Elegast. This harvest we organized a harvest dinner to celebrate nature's plenty! As cidermakers we've become very much aware of the importance of harvest moments, and feel gratitude for an abundant harvest. It's our livelyhood now. Plús it is delicious and impressive: so many beautiful, tasteful apples and pears from these old trees. Climate change affects the harvest. Too hot and dry summers, impredictable frosts in spring, they all have their impact on the harvest. To celebrate the beauty and plenty, and to remind ourselves of our relation with nature, we made a harvest bowl. It contains fruits, vegetables, flowers, our products and some old grain varieties, donated by @graangeluk . We plan to organize more seasonal events. Coming up next is a mid-winter fest. Interested?

Two SILVER medals for our Wild Cider and our Wild Two SILVER medals for our Wild Cider and our Wild Perry, at the International competition of SISGA 2021 in Asturias! We're thrilled to receive this honour, in a country with a proud cider tradition, and judged by peer international cidermakers. Wild Cider this year is very floral, and consists of a variety of apples coming from multiple orchards. The main theme was blending the honey-like qualities of Api Noir with the potpourri aroma of Kerr. We blended barrel-fermented Belle de Boskoop and Bramley to spice things up. Wild Perry is a rediscovery of forgotten stove pear varieties, such as St. Remy and Brederode. Gieser wildeman is a popular stove pear, and is now integrated in a cider. Pear trees can grow very old and big, and we're happy to support the orchards that have them with our cider and perry.

This box holds a story from the past. When the Hor This box holds a story from the past. When the Horstermeerpolder was created, a cooperative fruit auction was created. In the agricultural modernization in the 60s and 70s, grants were given to cut down old fruit trees. So the auction closed. In the past, the river Vecht was a fruit region full of orchards. Now they are thinly spread out. Receiving this old crate of apples was joyful, as it is the same day we install the press to start the pressing season, and create new products from old orchards. The crate belongs to Vreedenhorst in Vreeland. We make a very fruity cider each year with tropical tones, resulting from the apple 'sweet caroline' on the estate #vreedenhorst in #vreeland #saveorchardsdrinkcider #ciderrevolution
During our harvest lunch Prof. Erik de Jong gave a During our harvest lunch Prof. Erik de Jong gave a lecture about the celebration of harvest in various cultures. We compiled a harvest table for the opportunity, showcasing fruit, vegetables, grains and flowers. Erik explained the meaning of everyday rituals in our daily lives. Seasonal rituals were likewise very common in cultures and eras that relate more to nature and harvest than our present day society does. With examples of Japanese, native North-American, and celtic traditions, Erik de Jong showed the meaningful, heartfelt, communal and sometimes humoristic rituals around the world. Apparantly it's so natural to us to mark moments in the year, relating to seasons. Our loss of a seasonal moment to stand still and be thankful for the bounty of nature, might relate to our disconnect from nature. This disconnect is part of our environmental problems. By celebrating the cycle of life, growth, and harvest, we might be able to reconnect ourselves again. It can start a more sustainable lifestyle, where local food and products make your diet have a more positive impact on your world. That's what we want to be part of, and even instigate. Our goal is to celebrate all seasons, as joyful occasions where we meet new and old friends, taste nature's products, and enjoy music, food and drinks, and be inspired by talks like Erik's. This is part of our #ciderrevolution where we build a culture and community around the orchards we love, value, maintain and develop. #cheerstotheharvest #naturesbounty #seizoensfeest #duurzaamleven #levensgenieter #biodiversityonthetable #showmeyourharvest
At our harvest lunch we presented our new cider/be At our harvest lunch we presented our new cider/beer hybrids: Against the Grain and Tegendraads. It is a co-fermentation of our wild apple juice and beer wort made by @nevelwildales We split the batch and each fermented it ourselves. The products are twins! Nevel used their wild yeast house culture and barrel aged, then dryhopped Tegendraads. Elegast worked with spontaneous fermentation straight from the orchard, then barrel aged half of the batch and blended again to a whole. Old grain and old apple varieties are used in the product, making it a valuable reuse of heirloom varieties that are worth keeping. You can order both as a twin pack on our or Nevel's website! #saveorchardsdrinkcider #againstthegrain #tegendraads #oogstfeestje #harvestevent
