Experience Details
We will pick you up in San Sebastian so that you can learn, with the help of our guide, the secrets of this thousand-year-old drink very closely linked to the Basque Country and its culture and gastronomy. You will visit the apple orchards, the farmhouse presses/stores, the cider-making areas, the cellars and, naturally, you taste natural home-made cider as we Basques make it: in the bottle and through the ritual called "Txotx".
¡Txoootx! is a call to taste natural cider directly from the barrels while you enjoy a traditional cider house menu. Through the ritual of Txotx you will taste cider from different barrels in the cellars of our cider houses while you enjoy a traditional cider house menu. You will have free time to taste the tasty cider house menu.
* The guided tour, as it is a shared service, may be in several languages depending on the origin of the clients.
