Son Of Man

In the dramatic gorge where the Columbia River cuts through the Cascade Mountains, Jasper Smith and Ella McCallion are making something almost no one else in the United States makes: authentic Sagardo, the ancient bone-dry cider of the Basque Country.

Smith, originally from Portland, and McCallion launched Son of Man in 2018 after a formative trip to the cider houses -- sagardotegiak -- of the Basque Country in northern Spain. They visited more than 20 producers and returned convinced that Basque cider, with its wild fermentation, funky complexity, and total lack of additions, was one of the great unheralded fermented beverages in the world. They partnered with Guillermo Castanos, a Basque cider consultant, to develop their approach.

More on how they farm and work in the cellar in our Son Of Man producer profile.
