Our Story  
The cidery's name is a reference to the 12th-13th century Latgallian land of Tālava, which encompassed the present-day areas of Northern Latgale and Northern Vidzeme, where the cidery is located.

Today, Tālava is a dynamic family business that blends tradition with innovation.

Apples  
Ciders are made from apples, with flavours enhanced by quinces, rhubarb, cherries, hops, and other additional ingredients. Tālava also produces non-alcoholic cider.

Ciders
Almost all of Tālava’s drinks are suitable for vegans and gluten-free diets. The ciders are bottled and canned; the cans are made from recycled aluminium, and the labels are created from an innovative blend of organic materials and recycled plastics. Tālava''s ciders have won awards at international competitions, including the International Cider Challenge, Japan Cider Cup 2023, Cider World Award, and SISGA Asturias.

Tālava invites both individual visitors and groups to tour the cider production facility, where they can learn about the art of cider-making and enjoy Tālava's ciders paired with snacks that highlight the cider’s flavour.

If you are looking for an unusual landscape and longing for silence, head to one of Latvia’s bogs. While in some European countries natural bogs have almost disappeared, you will be able to enjoy walks full of silence in pristine bogs in Latvia. No cars, people, bells and whistles surrounding you. It is the best antidepressant in the world and a great place to recharge.

Bogshoes are like snowshoes – except you wear them in bogs when there is no snow. Bogshoes have been used to walk on wetlands throughout the times. These footwear allow us access to the places where it is hard or even impossible to reach by foot.
What makes it especially great is that bogshoeing does not require any special knowledge or skills. It is simple and suitable for people of all ages who can move around by foot.
