Popular in Berlin

Lots of tasteful Norwegian beverage served in Berlin last week.

Grüne Woche (or International Green Week) is a giant food-, agriculture- and gardening fair in Berlin.

Innovation Norway and a large delegation of people from the Norwegian food- and beverage industry got together and arranged an impressive booth this year.

Empty after just a few days. Typical ;)  - photo by Lars Ole Ørjasæter, Norske akevitters venner.

Fjording was chosen as one of the specialities from the Western coast, together with other splendid brands like Kinn, Bareksten and Gardsbrenneriet.

I’m honored by that!

Too popular, actually

Norske akevitters venner was coordinating the spirits presentation and reported quickly that “Ouch, we have brought too little Fjording”:

- The drink isn’t only popular by the Berliners, it’s also popular amongst the Norwegians at the booth...

Haha, no wonder they got empty so rapidly.

However, thanks to all the delegates at the fair! It looks like you did a splendid job in promoting Norway.
