Trabanco Sin Alcohol is a non-alcoholic Asturian cider produced from estate-grown, heirloom apples, grown at the historic Trabanco sidrería in the heart of northern Spain’s world-famous cider country. Sín Alcohol is a groundbreaking non-alcoholic iteration of their much-beloved original Sidra Natural, retaining all of the character of the original, without the alcohol.
The Trabanco family is synonymous with natural cider. They have been producing cider following traditional methods since 1925 in the small village of Lavandera, on Spain’s northern Cantabrian coast, defined by deep green mountains and cerulean blue ocean waters. Generations of the Trabanco family have been raised to be involved with all the aspects of cider production since they were young.
Heirloom apples from Trabanco’s orchards are hand-harvested and crushed in a giant wooden press. Alcoholic fermentation is spontaneous with indigenous yeasts in massive, 100 year-old chestnut barrels. Following fermentation, the natural cider is dealcoholized in a centrifuge and then the natural fine lees (expired natural apple yeasts) are reintroduced into the tank, boosting flavor and complexity. The fine lees are essential to the character of Asturian cider, lending this non-alcohol version all of the intensity of flavor and complexity of the original.
De Maison is proud to offer Trabanco Sin Alcohol to cider fans who are looking for a delicious and authentic non-alcoholic option, available in bottles and on draft in 20L kegs.
