A big thank you to Rivieraklubben for organising such a lovely spring celebration.

And thank you to everyone who stopped by our stand during the event – it was wonderful to meet so many familiar and new faces. Everybody wanted to try the smoked reindeer bites, and they disappeared incredibly fast!

We also received many great answers to our fun quiz competition, and the gift card winner has already been contacted personally by email.

Here are the right answers to the quiz:

What do reindeer eat?

Reindeer adapt their diet to the changing Nordic seasons. During the long Arctic winters, they mainly survive on lichen — especially reindeer lichen — which they dig out from beneath the snow with their hooves. In summer, they enjoy a much more varied diet including grasses, herbs, leaves, mushrooms, buds, and even tree bark.

This unique natural diet contributes to the distinctive flavour of traditional Nordic reindeer products.

What makes moose meat special in terms of nutrition and fat content?

Moose meat is naturally very lean and low in fat while being rich in high-quality protein, iron, and essential nutrients. Its deep, full-bodied game flavour comes from animals roaming freely in the Nordic wilderness.

Often considered one of the purest wild meats in the world, moose is prized for both its rich taste and its healthy nutritional profile.

What makes lingonberries unique in flavour and use?

Lingonberries have a fresh, tangy flavour with a pleasantly tart and slightly bitter finish. In Nordic cuisine, they are traditionally served alongside meat and wild game dishes, where their bright acidity perfectly balances rich flavours. Lingonberries are naturally rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, making them one of the healthiest berries found in the Nordic forests. They also contain natural preservatives, allowing them to stay fresh for a long time without additives.

Wild lingonberries grow across the forests of Scandinavia and Finland, thriving in dry, sunny woodland areas.
