  • Txotx! Catch the cider straight from the barrel as we explore a traditional Basque cider house in Astigarraga, a town up the Urumea river, 15 minutes from San Sebastián, with our friend Julen, from AUPA HI! Tours.
    Julen took us to Sidrería Gurutzeta, his favorite cider house, and it’s easy to see why! They’ve been a family business, dedicated to making natural Basque cider since the end of the 19th century. And it’s the perfect place to enjoy this centuries old tradition - with new friends, tons of barrels to taste, and some great traditional Basque food!
    Originally, Basque cider was kept in massive barrels and used by local sailors to prevent scurvy as they explored the Atlantic all the way to Newfoundland. Since the 1980s, cider has made a cultural comeback for us non-sailors, with fun “endless” tastings and delicious feasts like the one we enjoyed.
    If you hear “txotx!” it’s time to grab your glass and get in line for some of the best cider you’ll ever taste.
    “It would be unthinkable to leave the Basque Country without drinking and eating in one of our unique cider houses.” - Julen.

    Curious, recently found you, do you nomad full time or have home base

    • @DaysWeSpend
      @DaysWeSpend  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching. We were full time nomads for a year pre-pandemic. We spent the last 2 years with a home base in California. Recently, we went back to our nomadic lifestyle.

      @@DaysWeSpend thanks, figuring if try have home base, put all in storage, or sell all...happy travels

      That’s a fun dilemma! We sold most of our things for our first nomad year. That way, our storage unit wasn’t very large. Took our stuff out on our CA. Downsized our stuff again and now it’s in our family’s garage.
