Plunge into the living ritual of Asturian cider culture in Oviedo's ancient sidrería quarter, guided by a local food expert who introduces you to the art of the escanciado pour and a curated parade of hyperlocal pintxos and charcuterie.
What to expect
Your guide leads you through the cobblestone Casco Histórico of Oviedo to a series of authentic sidrerías, where waiters perform the dramatic high-pour from arm's length that aerates the cider into foam. You'll taste aged Cabrales blue cheese, local Iberian charcuterie, and grilled Asturian beef alongside at least three different single-estate ciders. The tour closes with a visit to a traditional market stall for locally produced honey and preserves to take aboard.
Good to know
Oviedo is approximately 30 minutes by road from the port area. The experience runs 3–4 hours, leaving comfortable time to return before all-aboard. Cider tastings are alcoholic — pace yourself across the sidrerías. Book directly through your chosen ToursByLocals guide and confirm dietary requirements in advance.
