Rugilė Gira Lithuanian Kvass Drink 2L (67.6fl oz)

Rugilė Gira — a Lithuanian traditional kvass soft drink, fermented from rye bread in the Baltic Slavic tradition. Tangy, lightly malty, refreshingly traditional; the household summer drink of the Baltic and broader Slavic world.

Heritage: Gira — the Lithuanian name for kvass — has been a staple of the Baltic table for centuries, fermented from rye bread or grain malt with sugar and water. Considered a soft drink (alcohol content typically below 1%), gira predates beer in the regional tradition and remains the iconic summer street drink in Lithuania and across the post-Soviet space. Rugilė bottles in the classic dark-rye style.

Tasting notes: Deep amber color. Pronounced toasted-rye and dark-bread aroma with a soft malty sweetness. Lively, lightly effervescent palate with a tangy refreshing finish.

Pairing: Serve ice-cold. Excellent on a hot afternoon, with Lithuanian cepelinai, cold beet soup (šaltibarščiai), smoked fish, or simply as a thirst-quenching soft drink.

Pack: 2L bottle. Store cold; consume fresh.
