      The labelling is likely a marketing decision, to disambiguate from grapes. Original Lonkero is gin and grapefruit (not grape / grapes).
      And what is grapefruit? A member of the citrus family (citrus x paradisi).
      They may not use actual grapefruit or graperuit soda, nor gin (they mention a "liqueur kick"), but the product itself is pretty darn good.
      Easily better than some of the actual Finnish or Estonian clones (Koff, A le Cog etc.)

    • @Hukka55
      @Hukka55 10 днів тому +9

      The Original by Hartwall is still unbeaten. If you ever get to try it, strongly suggest it. Just make sure it is the mixed version with gin, and not the fermented version. The fermented version (sold in Estonia, for example) has a different taste profile. Not good, IMO.

    In Finland the biggest and the original manufacturer is Hartwall and it's usually preferred by the majority of the population. We have a few staples like the original grapefruit flavour, and the cranberry flavour, but there are tons of different flavours nowadays and different companies are always trying new twists on the long drinks. Rn a very popular variant, especially during summers, is the pineapple flavour which Hartwall put out a couple of years ago. Long drink is very much a part of the Finnish culture as a whole.

      Is it more expensive than in Finland? The "Original Long Drink", which is considered the best one, is 3€ for one 0,33l can, and 18€ for a 6-pack. Cheapest ones I've seen are 4x0,5l pack from Lidl at 9,16€. I forgot the name of the brand.

      Jep, Hatrwall on ollut toki ulkomaalaisomistuksessa jo pitkään mut ei se nyt ihan täysin ulkomaalainen silti ole. Ärsyttää vain yleisesti ottaen kun ne markkinoi lonkeroa täysin kunnianhimottomasti vain Suomessa vuosikaudet kun maailmalla olisi ollut tuotteelle kysyntää.
