Asturian Cider Masters

On today's show, Jessica and Mark dig into the rich culture, history, and production of traditional Spanish Cider, particularly from the region of Asturias.  Jessica interviews Pepin Diaz Sanchez, a cider producer, followed by Eduardo Coto, a cider critic and judge, and David Menendez, the owner of La Tabla, a cider-focused restaurant. We discuss all aspects surrounding the cider industry from the different types of apples used for production, how cider differs from wine, and all the cultural aspects around cidrerías, or traditional cider bars, pouring cider and so much more. Sample video of pouring cider from the World Championship of Cider Pouring, in Spanish the specific word for this act is escanciar:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HamCokfRzV8 Pepín's Cider Route: https://pepin.es/en/home/ La Table Restaurant: https://www.restaurantelatabla.com/
