The Cider Industry in Rogaland is Blooming
The cider industry in Rogaland has seen positive growth in recent years. Several local producers have won international awards and are well-represented at Vinmonopolet, in both the basic and ordering selections. With increasing attention to craft products like cider, the future looks bright for producers in the region. This event marks an important step in strengthening Rogaland’s position as a significant cider region. TEAL support the positive development in Norwegian cider, especially cider from Rogaland, and look forward to further collaboration with Rogaland Siderlag and the associated cider producers.
