Cider D.O. Zelaia

Description

Cider house Zelaia

The Gaincerain family has been making cider since the late 19th century. Their great-grandfather José Antonio produced cider for the family consumption at that time. Joakin, his son, turned his father's hobby into a profession, and so turned the Zelaia cider house into a business. When he took over the reins of the cider house, he made an adaptation in his facilities: expanding the cider cellar, renovating equipment and machinery and adapting the dining room. Currently, Oihana, Maialen and Jaione, the daughters, are running the company. They are the fourth generation of the family managing the cider house and the first women taking this task. The main basis of our Euskal Sagardoa cider is the quality of the apple and we attach great importance to the service we offer.
