History and atmosphere

About Etxeberria cider house

Etxeberria cider house, founded in 1975 by the current owner’s father, has been remodelled many times over the years. The facilities have been adapted and extended as needs arose, with new technology, new installations and so on. The cider house sits in a spot that stands out not only for its beauty but also as one of Astigarraga’s cider-making areas. Home-grown apples supply 10–20% of its cider production. It currently produces around 150,000 litres of cider a year.

Specialities

Salt cod in green sauce, to order only.

Etxeberria has been bottling cider since 1970 and makes three Euskal Sagardoa ciders with Designation of Origin: the standard one, the Premium and the organic, with apples from its own orchards.

From tree to bottle

Etxeberria’s own house cider

As well as a cider house, it’s a cider maker: it makes its own cider, and what’s served at the table comes from its own cellar.

Quality labels

  • DO Euskal Sagardoa Designation of origin for natural Basque cider: only local apples from registered orchards in Álava, Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa, not pasteurised and with no added gas. The French Basque Country joins through the cross-border PDO, pending in the EU. The seal goes on each bottle, not on the cider maker.
  • Organic production Cider with the EU organic logo (the Euro-leaf), certified by the body in its territory: ENEEK-Ekolurra in the Basque Country, CPAEN in Navarre, an approved certifier in the French Basque Country (with the optional AB logo), COPAE, ODECA or CRAEGA.
