pommage

Definitions

1. 1

   The set of apple and/or pear varieties grown in a region or location.

   • In a certain locality, however, it is not all the varieties included in the regional pommage that are traditionally grown, and that locality might have a pommage which is a subset of the regionl one.
2. 2

   The ground-up apples from which cider is pressed.

   • In grinding the apples for this use into pommage, several methods are practised; but the two most chiefly in use are, the bruising-stone with a circular trough, and the apple-mill.
   • After the apples are gathered from the trees, they are ground into what is called pommage, either by means of a common pressing stone, with a circular trough, or by a cider mill, which is either driven by hand or by horse power.
