About Bereziartua cider house
Bereziartua cider house was founded before 1870 and is now in the hands of the fourth or fifth generation. Bereziartua has always been a well-known name, first in Ergobia and now in Astigarraga and the surrounding area. Thanks to its reputation and its good work over so many years, it was a pioneer in obtaining ISO 9001 quality certification. Today Bereziartua’s cider carries the Euskal Sagardoa Designation of Origin, which in 2017 took over from Eusko Label as the seal for Basque natural cider.
Specialities
You’ll find both wooden and stainless steel kupelas (casks).
Bereziartua has been making cider since 1870, first in Ergobia and since 1970 in Astigarraga. It produces natural cider, Euskal Sagardoa with Designation of Origin and organic cider, as well as apple juice and cider vinegar, and sells them in its online shop. It offers guided tours with a tasting.

Bereziartua’s own house cider

A Basque cider party in Brooklyn: Sagar Handia Fest 2024 at the Basque Centre in New York
We have talked a lot about the taste for Basque cider in the USA. For us in particular, it came as a shock to find, back in distant 2010, an article in the New York Times in which the critic Eric Asimov (an old acquaintance of our website and, yes, a relative of the scientist, writer and creator of the “Three Laws of Robotics”, Isaac Asimov) recommended a Basque cider for Thanksgiving.
