The place

Altringen

The village where the press stands: north-east of Timișoara, on the hills of Bogda commune, among old orchards and oak woods. The crates arrive here and the boxes leave from here.

The place

Bogda

The commune we hold dear, with the hills where we grow aronia. The place that gives our fruit its taste: good soil, sun, altitude.
