ROUTE

A Sea Of Cider is the proposal to get to know our cultural and gastronomic hegemony!

In the 16th Century fishers and sailors made long expeditions to the New Land, to the hunt of whales and the fishing of cod. The drink by excellence of these sailors was cider and, no more no less, each sailor drank 3 liters of cider every day! The biggest part of cider produced in the basque farms was sent to these expeditions. You’ll know firsthand this reconstruction of the Saint John whale ship from the 16th Century, sunk in the cold Canadian waters. The ship schematics return to their origins and will sail again from where centuries ago has set sail.
