Distell Group - Savanna Light

Savanna is a real natural cider from South Africa. Its iconic packaging in its unique dumpy bottle, together with its quirky personality have made this premium cider a firm favourite and is today the 3rd biggest cider in the world. Savanna Dry Cider was launched in May 1996 and has changed people’s perceptions because back then everything was in cans. Drinking beer out of a bottle also became cool in the USA around this time. The name was dry like the African savannah. In May 2000, Savanna introduced a lower alcohol option with its Light variant. With only 3% alcohol, it offered consumers a healthier option. The tradition is that Savanna is best served ice-cold with a lemon wedge in the neck of the bottle and this ritual stems from the famous bartender Dale Raines who introduced the idea at the La Med bar in Cape Town, South Africa. And all who drink Savanna loyally follow this custom. Savanna is one of South Africa’s favourite drinks and is currently enjoyed in more than 40 countries across the globe. Savanna, it’s dry, but you can drink it.
