Orval Trappist glass

The Orval glass is a classic chalice designed specifically for enjoying the world-renowned Orval Trappist Ale. This glassware is deeply connected to the Abbaye Notre-Dame d'Orval located in Villers-devant-Orval, Belgium. The brand is one of the few authentic Trappist breweries in the world, meaning the beer and its associated merchandise are produced under the direct supervision of the monks of the Cistercian order.

Historically, the Orval brand dates back to the reconstruction of the abbey in the 1920s and 30s, with the brewery established to fund the rebuilding efforts. Unlike most corporate beer brands, Orval is owned by the Abbey itself through the Brasserie d'Orval S.A. Most profits are dedicated to social projects and the upkeep of the religious site, ensuring the brand remains tied to its heritage and non-profit origins.
