Savanna Dry Cider: Crisp, Refreshing, and Unmistakably South African

Savanna Dry Cider is South Africa’s most iconic cider, celebrated globally for its crisp, clean, and refreshingly dry flavor. First launched in 1996, this pioneering cider is made from handpicked Granny Smith apples grown in the lush Elgin Valley of the Western Cape — a region renowned for its premium fruit cultivation. At 5% ABV, it offers a perfectly balanced drinking experience that’s both light and satisfying, making it a favorite among cider enthusiasts around the world.

On the nose, Savanna Dry reveals fresh aromas of green apple, pear, and subtle floral notes, setting the stage for its signature dry, zesty flavor. The palate is refreshing and slightly tart, with crisp apple acidity and gentle sweetness balanced by fine carbonation and a smooth, clean finish. Traditionally served chilled with a wedge of lemon in the neck of the bottle, Savanna Dry delivers a uniquely South African twist that enhances its bright, tangy character.

Crafted through a meticulous fermentation process using freshly pressed apple juice, Savanna is matured slowly to preserve its natural fruit flavors. The result is a refreshing, low-sugar cider that perfectly bridges the gap between classic European dry ciders and contemporary fruit-forward styles.

Versatile and easy to enjoy, Savanna Dry Cider pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes — from grilled seafood and chicken skewers to spicy Asian cuisine and hearty salads. Its crisp dryness and gentle sparkle make it a refreshing complement to both rich and fiery flavors.
