Producer's Background:

Aval—which means “apple” in Breton—is produced in the heart of Brittany, France, a region famed for cider making for over 1,000 years. Born from the collaboration of over 335 apple growers, Aval is proudly co-op made, emphasizing equity, sustainability, and quality. Every apple is fresh-pressed, fermented without additives or sweeteners, and handled with care from orchard to pour. As a cooperative, Aval’s producers reinvest profits directly into the land, ensuring the longevity of cider craftsmanship for generations to come.

Serving Suggestions:

Best served chilled at 38–42°F, Aval Blanc is incredibly versatile. Enjoy it solo on a sunny patio, or pair it with takeout Thai, light seafood dishes like paella, or even a cheese board. For something bolder, try it with a splash of gin or as a lively aperitif for any gathering.

From boardrooms to biergartens, Aval Blanc Cider is the bright and juicy companion that never misses a beat—classic French heritage with a refreshingly rebellious twist.
