Sidra Bajo

Low-alcohol Asturian sparkling cider from Trabanco, blended from sweet, bitter and sour apple varieties fermented with indigenous yeasts in chestnut casks.

About This Drink

Trabanco has been making cider in Asturias for generations, and Sidra Bajo is their low-alcohol version of the same process - same orchards, same chestnut barrels, same indigenous yeasts. It sits at the gentler end of the sidra style, semi-dry with a lightness that keeps it approachable without losing the apple character. It pours pale golden with fine, persistent carbonation. The aroma is clean: green apple upfront with a faint balsamic wood note from the casks. On the palate the acidity is present but not aggressive, and there's a softness that the zero-alcohol version doesn't quite have. The finish is tart and clean, fading quickly with a dry apple-skin edge.
