Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

David Corbly asks What’s your favorite alcoholic drink after all your world travels?

I have a very simple answer to that question. Cider from the Basque Country of Spain. I first had it when I visited a cideria in 2010. You can find it easily enough almost anywhere in Spain if you go into a bar, but finding it outside of Spain is very difficult.

The cider has a very unique way of being poured where the bottle is held as high as possible, and the glass is as low as possible. The cider is aerated when it pours into the glass which enhances the taste.

I’ve tried looking for it everywhere in the United States can I could never find it. I eventually went to a local wine shop and asked them if they could order it. It turns out they could as their distributor carried it. I bought an entire case of it, and I still have several bottles today.
