Description
Immerse yourself in the north’s liquid culture at a cider house in San Sebastian..
On this experience you will head to a cider house from San Sebastian to discover, with a local guide, how sagardo (cider in Basque) is born in traditional farmsteads and how it is perfected today among orchards, presses, and century-old kupelas.
We will stroll among native trees, you will learn about varieties, harvest and pressing, and understand natural fermentation before practising the mythical txotx straight from the barrel. Afterwards, the experience rounds off with the classic cider-house menu : juicy cod omelette, fried cod, charcoal-grilled steak, and a dessert of cheese with quince paste and walnuts, paired with bottomless cider free-flow cider so you can appreciate fresh, acidic, and fruity nuances in every pour.
With private transport, hotel pick-up and drop-off, cellar access, and small groups or a private option, this cider tour is the tastiest and most educational way to connect with Basque roots, learn rituals and serving touches, and take away recommendations to keep enjoying the best cider houses in Donostia and the surrounding area.
A perfect cider-house experience for foodies, the curious, and lovers of tradition who want to raise a glass with authenticity in the heart of the Basque Country.
