Geneva area Cider

If you're looking for alcoholic apple cider (hard cider) in Geneva, your best options are:

Try local Geneva cider directly

* Cidrerie de Meinier — One of the best-known local cider producers in the Geneva region. They make traditional Geneva cider and are a great choice if you'd like to taste something produced locally rather than imported brands.[1]
(See about transportation to this cider maker.)

Bars and bottle shops with good craft selections

* Drinks of the World (inside Cornavin station) usually stocks a wide range of international and Swiss craft beverages, including ciders. It's probably the easiest place in central Geneva to buy a few different bottles and compare styles.[2]
* Britannia Pub and Charly O’Neills Irish Pub & Restaurant often carry cider alongside beer, typically British or Irish brands on draft or in bottles. Availability can vary.

If you want a cider-focused venue

* The restaurant/bar Ephese describes itself as a cider bar in Geneva.[3]

For a uniquely Swiss cider experience

Look for local producers such as:

* Sergette Cidre — artisanal cider made in Geneva using natural bottle fermentation.[4]
* BlackDot Cider — small-batch ciders produced near Lake Geneva and found in some specialty shops and restaurants.[5]

If you're visiting the city center and want one recommendation for today, I'd start with Drinks of the World to sample several Swiss and imported ciders, then head to a pub nearby if you'd like to try one on draft.
