A perry respectable alternative to wine – in praise of pear cider - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“They’re gorgeous little beasts,” Eddie Izzard said on the subject of pears in her mid-1990s show Definite Article, “but they’re ripe for half an hour and you’re never there!” Little did she know that she was touching on one of the difficulties of making perry – the fermented juice of perry pears – a drink that remains, in comparison with cider, a relative cottage industry.
