Freedom’s Edge Hard Cider Tasting

Ned Ervin & Andy Kaplan from Freedom’s Edge Cider set out to make a series of well-balanced, full-bodied delicious hard ciders that are accessible to a far wider audience. They are on a mission to show people that cider can be so rich and satisfying that it’s a first-choice drink, not just a novelty or an option for those who can’t tolerate beer or wine. According to the cider makers themselves, “the key to our ciders is “balance.” We use less back sweetening than mass market ciders. Some have a bit more, some have a bit less, but our guiding principle is that we use just enough sweetening to balance out the acidity and the tannins, to create the most enjoyable beverage possible and allow the flavor of the apples to be the star of the show.”

Join Andy for a Freedom’s Edge Hard Cider Tasting on Friday November 4th from 4pm to 6pm at our Cape Elizabeth market.

Stop in, say hello to Andy, and see what makes this cidery, located on the edge of Freedom, Maine, so special.
