Rekorderlig

The Story Behind Rekorderlig

Rekorderlig was launched in 1999 by the Åbro Brewery in Vimmerby, Sweden. The brewery itself has been producing beverages since 1856, but Rekorderlig was created to meet growing demand for premium fruit ciders that combined traditional cider-making with contemporary flavours.

The brand quickly gained popularity across the Nordic region before expanding into the United Kingdom, Australia, Asia, and several other international markets. Its refreshing style and colourful flavour range have helped Rekorderlig become one of Sweden's most successful cider exports.
