During the 1.5h tasting we'll tell you all about making cider. We let you taste the differences between 5 of our ciders, accompanied by a bite from our neighbouring restaurant Bij de Tuinman. Our cidery is situated on a beautiful estate, so before the tasting you can go for a nice walk in the woods and on the heath, or we can book a mountainbike-tour for you.
Private Cider Tasting in Hilversum
The Netherlands is a known 'apple country' yet has no cider history. Elegast is one of the first professional cidermakers and the first one to have a tasting room in the cidery. We produce a variety of innovative yet craft and natural made ciders, using no sulphites, wild fermentations, beer yeasts, Bretts and sometimes adding other fruit and barrel ageing. Our ciders have been reviewed very positive by international cider makers and we love to let you taste and smell the dutch orchards, characterised by very clear, crisp and full aroma's in our ciders.
