@anoche.portland has launched an exciting new init @anoche.portland has launched an exciting new initiative called the Backyard Cider Project. The Washington Ave cider bar will be gathering apple donations from the public, and work with @cornishciderco to press, ferment and bottle a "unique cider that showcases the terroir of Maine". The finished product is expected to be bottled and available this coming spring along with a map that shows where in Maine the fruit for the community cider project was sourced from. “All across our state apple trees abound on public and private property alike. A large portion of these apples go to waste, and we want your help turning those apples into a unique cider that showcases the terroir of Maine.” “With the apple harvest being upon us, we are asking any and all who have access to apple trees to bring us your fruit! [B]ring whatever you can: blemished apples, small apples, crabapples, etc. from now through the end of October. Because good cider apples don’t typically taste good to eat—the more bitter and sour, the better! Drop them off at Anoche any day of the week between 2 pm and 8 pm. Leave them by the front door and come to the window to let us know they are there...we will bring them in! Happy picking!” Anoche owner Erika Colby shared, "We thought this project could be a fun way to bring people together at a time when the pandemic is keeping us apart. Pressing and fermenting juice into cider is an expression of hope in a better future—one where we can come together again to taste the fruits of the work we did to make this cider possible." Everyone who donate a bushel (40 lbs) or more to the Backyard Cider Project will be entered into a drawing to win an apple tree from a local nursery so "we can keep the tradition going for more years to come." Anoche opened late last year on Washington Ave serving a menu of draft and bottled cider and Basque food. During the pandemic Anoche has launched an outdoor seating area and cider takeout window serving draft and bottled cider as well as a cider growler service. #portlandmaine #backyardciderproject #communitycider #mainecider #anocheciderbar #cornishcidercompany #maineapples #ciderapples #ilovecider #hardcider

Chestnut Crab apples are now in season. Imagine ta Chestnut Crab apples are now in season. Imagine taking all the flavor of a normal apple and concentrating it into a tiny package with a nice crunch and you’ve got a good sense for Chestnuts. They’re the perfect early season Maine apple. I picked up this bunch of them at @mcdougal.orchards in Springvale. Along the way I fit in a visit to @rabelaisbooks culinary bookstore in Biddeford (4th photo) and DeWolfe and Woods Antiques in Alfred (5th photo). #maineapples #chestnutcrabapples #mcdougalsorchard #springvalemaine

@speckledaxcoffee opened their new coffee shop at @speckledaxcoffee opened their new coffee shop at 20 Thames Street this morning, Their hours are 7:30 am – 3 pm. In addition to their stellar coffee brewed from wood-roasted beans, the new Speckled Ax will have a food menu that will include two egg sandwich options, a banh mi, a lobster roll and baked goods from Ilma Lopez at @chavalmaine. Speckled Ax has secured a liquor license. In the future they plan to expand the food menu as well as serve beer and wine. One of the new innovations of the new shop is a Cyclops brewing machine. Also look for flash brewed ice coffee, cascara, and a new infused milk flavor profile as well as pour overs, espresso-based drinks and one of my favorites—tower shots. Matt Bolinder founded Matt’s Wood Roasted Coffee in 2007 and opened the original Speckled Ax shop on Congress Street opened in May 2012. #portlandmaine #woodroastedcoffee #mainecoffee #thamesstreet #speckledax
