Sagardoetxea: the basque cider museum. The museum is divided into three well-defined sections, through which the visitors can get in touch with the apple and cider history, as well as its present situation: firstly, the apple orchard and the press. secondly, the museum itself, and finally the tasting centre. A different activity for each season. Sagardoetxea is a lively space that deals with the apple and cider culture and offers you a different activity for each season: getting the newly pressed must with your own hands, picking up apples with the help of a “kizki” and observing the fruit ripening, the grafts, the pollination and so on. The cider house: gastronomy and culture. The proposal we are putting forward culminates by coming to the cider house. Sagardoetxea makes you know one of the most rooted traditions, and one of the gastronomical events that best identify the basques. However, lets point out that this is not a restaurant but a cider cellar, whose rules for proper behavior have their specific characteristics. to get to know them is also part of the tradition. Sagardoetxea proposes a guided tour at a cider house and/or the testing of its menu.Sagardoaren museoa • Museo de la sidra Kale Nagusia 48 • 20115 Astigarraga • Gipuzkoa • Tel: 00 34 943 550 575 • www.sagardoetxea.com 3 Sagardoetxea the basque cider museum The museum is divided into three well-defined sections, through which you can get in touch with the apple and cider history, and its present situation.

The museum It is located at the foot of the apple orchard and gives you the opportunity to learn about this millenary tradition by watching the different tools –that belonged to the “sagardogile” or cider master- a projection of multi-media documentaries, a number of explanatory panels, games and photographs. in a word, the apple and cider present, past and future. also the rites and customs around it and the different drinks made from apples.

Guided visit to a cider house A guided visit to a traditional cider house, where all the making of cider is shown: arrival of the apples, cleaning, crushing, pressing, must scumming, alcoholic and matolactic fermentation, ripening and bottling. Tasting the typical cider house menu We must point out that the Cider House is not a restaurant, but a cellar with its own rules for proper behaviour. Although these are quite simple, they arouse the visitors’curiosity, which makes this custom not only be kept alive, but also to be considered as a unique experience. The traditional menu at a Cider House is practically the same in most of them, though there might be some little variations on special occasions. However, thy will not alter in any sense the real meaning and the idiosyncrasy characteristic of this experience. The menu consists of a cod omelet, fried cod with green peppers, steak, cheese and quince preserve, walnuts and cider taken following the “txotx” style.Sagardoaren museoa • Museo de la sidra Kale Nagusia 48 • 20115 Astigarraga • Gipuzkoa • Tel: 00 34 943 550 575 • www.sagardoetxea.com 7 Thematic dinner at cider houses Come to know the history of the gastronomic, social and authentic event of the rite of the txotx to one of Astigarraga’s traditional cider house, considered the heart of the cider.
