At African Originals, we craft bold, locally made beverages that celebrate Africa’s rich flavours. From crisp ciders and smooth gins to refreshing tonics, ready-to-drink G&Ts, and innovative iced teas—every sip is made with real ingredients, passion, and originality. Our journey began in 2016 in Nairobi, Kenya, where we crafted our first cider using real Kenyan ingredients in a humble container setup. What started as a small operation has grown into a state-of-the-art facility, but our mission remains unchanged: to celebrate Africa's bold spirit and rich heritage through premium craft beverages.
