GASTRONOMY AND TRADITION.
Asturias is a culinary paradise offering an unparalleled gastronomic experience. Famous for its green, mountainous landscapes, Asturias is also known for its rich and varied cuisine, which combines tradition and quality in every bite.
In addition to typical Asturian dishes (Fabada Asturiana, Pote Asturiano, and Cachopo), Asturias is known as the "Land of Cheeses," with more than 40 artisanal varieties. Typical Asturian desserts include Arroz con Leche, Casadiellas, and Apple Tart.
Asturian cider is more than just a drink; it is a tradition. Made in an artisanal way, the cider is poured from a height to aerate and enhance its flavor. Visiting a llagar (cider house) and participating in an espicha (cider party) is an experience not to be missed.
Asturian cuisine is a celebration of authentic flavors and centuries-old traditions.
