"For an early start to the season, I’d head north to Winthrop, Maine, where apples are available from mid-August through the end of October (pick-your-own can finish by early November). Maine’s high latitude and rugged coast give its cider apples a bright, acidic bite—Kaiser recommends a high-acid or high-tannin cider such as Absolem’s foraged-apple Wendel—and he suggests pairing that style with Maine’s classic lobster roll." - Beth Demmon
