Cider Voice 55 – Liberty to Cider, with Elisha Mason
Description
Liberty to Cider – with Elisha Mason
We take an apple-tinted journey into the past with our guest this week, Elisha Mason, @museumofcider Archives and Collections Officer.
Leading us into the mysterious (and, apparently, heavily haunted) archives and cellars of the magnificent Museum of Cider in Hereford, Elisha talks us through British Cider Riots, and how they inspired revolution in America, dream teapots and finding an unexpected foot in a box (different museum…)
Continuing to answer the big questions we ponder who would be the best starship captain amongst historical pomologists and orchardists, ask what an ingenio is and string out the great Cider Voice debate: Bulmer’s Norman vs Thorn Pear. Also, is Adam secretly the Scrooge of Wassailing (and can he even pronounce it?)
We loved recording this episode with Elisha. Drop us a line at albert@cidervoice.com with your suggestions of people we should speak to next, or just to talk all things cider and perry.
