Authentic Cider Makers from Gulbene

Founded in 2014 by local cider makers in Gulbene (historically known as Talava), our cidery began in a family garage. We focus on crafting authentic, high-quality beverages using locally sourced fruits. Our apples are specially selected and hand-picked, showcasing the remarkable diversity of Latvian apple varieties.

Cider Crafted for Enthusiasts

We challenge traditional flavor profiles and are unafraid to experiment with our cider creations. Our goal is to express our unique identity through innovative recipes. Each cider is made from carefully chosen Latvian apple varieties, benefiting from the region's distinct Nordic climate, which imparts fresh and crisp notes. By utilizing classic cider-making methods, we create a distinctly refreshing Nordic-style cider that highlights the character of our local apples.

I discovered these ciders thanks to the Qoqa website in Switzerland. For me it is one of the best ciders I have ever tasted. Is it possible to order from Switzerland?

It's probably one of the best ciders I've tasted in my entire life... When I visited their website, I saw that they only had Latvia as a delivery option...😢I then wrote to customer service and within a few moments I received the answer: it is possible to deliver to Switzerland 🥳🤩 and in just 7 days ! Great! The taste of their cider is neither too sweet nor too sour, just PERFECT 👌 The ingredients are natural and there are no artificial flavors. I will order regularly from now on. Thank you for existing and thank you for having such friendly and fast employees!

In the world full of sweet and synthetic beverages called cider, Tālava stands out with natural and prominent apple presence, with a hint of fermentation and a fruity bouquet from the added fruit juices. Great taste, eye-catching design and compliments on your choice of velvety texture of the can which is pleasant to the touch. Can't help mentioning winter drinks - my closest circle of people are spoiled with an additional bottle of Tālava Mulled cider to their Christmas gifts each year. Absolute favourite during wintertime. Thank you!
