Nå

Now we are soon arriving in Now (Nå)! where there will be a short stop. Those who wish to disembark at Nå, are warned of a fantastic experience that will never be forgotten. Here cider farms sit as tightly together as the pubs on Aker Brygge in Oslo, behind every apple tree there is a laugh, smile and something that will appeal to every palate. In the neighbouring hamlet of Vikebygd you will find the juice and cider producer Alde Sider, which was voted Norway’s best in 2018. In Nå you can also find Edel Sider based at Åkre Farm where they have been growing fruit for 8 generations, but in recent years the spotlight has been on the production of apple juice, spirits, and cider from Hardanger under the brand name Edel Sider. It is also recommended to take a visit to the farm with the plot number 57/2. There they produce cider with the catchy name 57/2, the cider is produced by the ‘Store Nå Siderkompani’ who have their premises at the Stor Nå Farm which has the plot number 57/2. And it doesn’t stop there. Here you can also find Kvestad Cider which went right to the top of Norwegian modern ciders with its tasty 1808 variety. Down by the harbour, the restaurant Siderhuset Ola K, serves a large variety of the fantastic local produce that Hardanger has to offer, everything from cider steamed mussels to locally baked goods.
