Savanna Dry Cider

Savanna Dry is a world-renowned premium cider that first debuted in South Africa in 1996. Since its introduction, it has become one of the most recognizable cider brands globally, famous for its signature serve with a wedge of lemon in the neck of the bottle. The brand's identity is built on a sharp, dry profiling that distinguishes it from sweeter traditional ciders.

The production of Savanna remains deeply rooted in South Africa, where it is manufactured at the Springs site and other facilities. However, due to its international success, production has also been expanded to the United Kingdom to serve the European markets efficiently. This dual-manufacturing strategy ensures that the brand can maintain its high quality while meeting global demand across various continents.

Ownership of the brand has transitioned through major corporate mergers. For many years, it was a flagship product of Distell Group Limited. Following a significant acquisition completed in recent years, Savanna is now part of the Heineken N.V. portfolio. This integration under the Heineken umbrella has provided Savanna with an extensive global distribution network, solidifying its position as a leading international cider brand headquartered in the Netherlands.
