Monteith’s National Cider Day Launch Party at
Sale St
Kiwi’s burgeoning love of cider will be celebrated two days ahead of Valentine’s Day when Monteith’s launches the first-ever ‘Monteith’s National Cider Day’ on Sunday 12th February.
Cider consumption is on the rise thanks to Kiwi’s new-found-love-affair with this fruity drop which Monteith’s first introduced two summers ago with Crushed Apple and Crushed Pear ciders. Since then cider sales have more than doubled with both men and women loving the more refreshing, alcohol option.
It was this growing interest
in cider that spurred Monteith’s into launching the
inaugural ‘Monteith’s National Cider Day’ at
Sale St, Auckland (www.sale-st.co.nz) next
month.
Monteith’s Alex Florian says Kiwis have taken to
cider faster than apples and pears fall from trees.
“We’re really excited about our first-ever Monteith’s National Cider Day and looking forward to sharing a few glasses with fellow cider fans at Sale St. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate cider either than on the newly-renovated deck at Sale St, relaxing in our apple and pear bean bags in the afternoon sun with a glass of ice cold Monteith’s Crushed Cider in hand while the DJ plays some great tunes.”
The party at Sale St. is open to the public and kicks off at 1pm. As an added bonus everyone that joins in the fun receives a complimentary glass of Monteith’s Crushed Cider on arrival.
