El Carrascu Natural Cider - Cider from Spain

Family owned since its creation at the end of the 1800’s, Sidra Acebal produces a lovely pair of ciders in Gijon, Asturias. We are currently offering their D.O.P. “El Carrascu” cider, produced primarily from native Asturian apple varieties Regona, Durona de Tresali, Raxao, Carrio and Limon Montes. The D.O.P. ciders to have a more citric, less fruity, profile (likely due to the selection of apple varieties, as non-D.O.P. ciders can, and normally do, include apples from other parts of Europe), and El Carrascu has an interesting extra bit of funky complexity to it.

Asturian ciders are best served cool, not cold, and ideally poured in the traditional escanciar method–high above the head, to create a slight carbonation in the cider and open it up aromatically. This is done in small portions to be drunk immediately–however, it also tastes great simply poured into a glass.
