[Growwine] Interesting article re: grapes vs tree fruits in the Okanagan

[Martin Paré]

mac and corts have been standard quebec hard cider material since the 
return of artisan cider (this is after the 1970s catastrophe, when they were 
likely also the base material)

I like mckeown's hard cider out of rougemont. likely mac based, although I 
had russet cider and really like it. can't find commercial version of it however.
