Quality international ciders, together in Asturias
From 24 to 27 September —with a complementary programme on 23 and 28 September— SISGA brings cideries and producers from different countries together face to face. Their representatives form the International Jury and share ciders, knowledge and projects at an event connected with UNESCO-recognised Asturian cider culture, Cider Cities and CIDEREU.
