Cider (named sagardo in Basque language, which means apple wine) is one of the most traditional and everlasting Basque drinks. The magic that involves its production (made in traditional Basque homesteads for centuries) can still be found in cider houses (Sagardotegis, in Basque language) where, apart from tasting the most traditional cider house menu, a guided tour of the apple trees and the different production areas is included in order to unveil every secret of this drink’s production. Transportation and lunch are included in this tour, with free flow cider included during lunch!
