Isastegi - Sagardo Naturala Cider (330ML)

Isastegi's Sagardo Naturala is a traditional Basque cider (sagardo) made from a blend of primarily sharp apple varieties, including Errezil. Natural yeast fermentation in stainless steel. Notes of apple skin, orchard floor, pear, and mandarine zest. Pairs well with Filipino pork adobo or fish tacos. A classic, traditional style cider from Spain. 

Isastegi is a refreshing, dry natural cider from the verdant mountains of the Basque Country, high above the Bay of Biscay along Spain’s rugged and green northern coast. Innovation meets 500 years of tradition, making the authentic San Sebastián cider experience portable.

Cider has been produced at the Isastegi farm since the 17th century as cider is an integral part of the Basque culture, where it is an everyday drink. Isastegi transcends the cider category, crafting a unique product born of the experience that comes from practices transmitted from generation to generation, paired with innovation. Isastegi cider is produced exclusively with organically-grown, native Basque apples farmed within a 15-kilometer radius of their cider house in Tolosa, in the countryside outside of San Sebastián.
