About Jade
Jade is the cider Refriango describes as one of its two new stars, alongside the Tigra beer, and it is pitched entirely at young drinkers and parties: the company calls it easygoing, vibrant, challenging and cosmopolitan, a drink that is breaking into social circles and that reinvents itself. It sits in the alcoholic half of a portfolio that otherwise runs on soft drinks, and it is made on the same Kikuxi lines as the beers and the wine-based drinks.
