About Petritegi D.O. Euskal Sagardoa
Petritegi’s cider with the Euskal Sagardoa Designation of Origin: only Basque Country apples, of native varieties and early harvest. It is fermented with the house’s own yeast taken from the Urtebi Haundi apple, which according to Petritegi brings out aromas of fresh fruit and green apple. 6 % ABV, unfiltered.
It is served like the Gorenak: cool (10–13 °C), shaken before opening and poured with the cap from about 30 cm. It won gold at the Sagardo Forum in 2019 and 2025.
