Description
Everything started in 1925 with our first cider mill. We opened in Lavandera, a small, countryside town just a few kilometers from Gijon. This is where it all began.

Nowadays, Lavandera is still home to the headquarters of Casa Trabanco cider house and where we work every day. It also serves as a meeting point for the many visitors and friends we welcome through our cider-tourism project.

0.75l bottle @ RBNAG11. Pours a cloided pale straw-yellow body with no head. Aroma has yeasty apples and some sugar. Yeasty flavors, kinda sourish and not great in my book.

Bottle at Fin & Loz’s tasting with Jan, Charlotte, Craig, Stella & kids consumed 21.10.11 This bottle purchased in Basque region, Spain July 2011 Pours light gold with a busy carbonation. I get a weird sort of drain like aroma at first which sadly doesn’t do this many favours, mmhh... despite the lovely bottle and that fact that this was considerably more expensive than many of the other Asturian and Basque ciders this isn’t actually that special, the Pure North from the cider hotbed of Holmfirth that we tasted beforehand was a far better cider in my opinion. Dry, champagne like in mouthfeel and also in taste, apples too subtl and shy, not much here to interest me sadly. A6 A3 T6 P2 Ov12 2.9
