History and atmosphere
About Uxarte cider house
Set in a farmhouse more than 300 years old in Zornotza’s Montorra neighbourhood, it keeps a cosy family atmosphere in its dining room and two private rooms. With room for 90 people, Uxarte guarantees its quality through a commitment to local produce. Today Uxarte cider carries the Euskal Sagardoa Designation of Origin, which in 2017 took over from Eusko Label as the seal for Basque natural cider.

From tree to bottle
Uxarte’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.
