It's time to pick up the fruits and get them on the way to the lagar. Pear (Pyrus communis), apple (Malus x domestica), grape (Vitis vinifera)... It seems a short and quick road, but you have to work a lot of rodeos and their variants until the fruit becomes must and must become an alcoholic beverage.
In my opinion, the main reasons for making alcoholic beverages with fruits and seeds are two. On the one hand, it is a way to preserve crops: alcohol as a preservative, is a way to keep these fruits without wasting them after much fruit. On the other hand, when water pollutes diseases and pests, the beverage disinfected with alcohol and fermentation has a great value for health.

It is not difficult in the world of cider and wine to develop in a similar way. Historians will bring it to light. In 1609, the Inquisitor Pierre Errostegi of Lancre described the Basque Country as follows: “It’s the town of apples; women only eat apple, only drink cider and are always ready to bite the apple of temptation.” Not supported by sterile Christian men. It is no wonder that we are witnessing a turn of the nut in which more and more shops and wineries of wine are in the hands of women. For the sake of cider and cider! Wine drinkers tell us...
