ARO vs Sparkling Water

ARO vs sparkling water

When plain fizz feels a bit too plain.

Sparkling water is great. But sometimes you want a can with more flavour, more character and a little more going on.

ARO is a sparkling fermented aronia drink — crisp, berry sharp and lightly tangy, with a real fermented base rather than just a whisper of flavour.

The simple difference

Flavour with a backbone.

Flavoured sparkling water is usually light, subtle and simple. ARO sits in a different space. It has bubbles, yes — but it also has fermented aronia at its heart.

That gives ARO a bolder dark berry flavour, a sharper finish and a more grown-up feel than standard flavoured water.

It is still crisp and refreshing, but it does not disappear after the first sip.

In short

Sparkling water whispers. ARO has something to say.
