Malaysia’s No. 1 Cider Somersby launches NEW variant - Elderflower Lime boasting pleasant floral aroma with refreshing twist of lime!

Subang Jaya, 17 August 2018 – Looking for a refreshing cider that satisfies your smell and taste sensory? Somersby Elderflower Lime, best served over ice, is the perfect beverage. Infused with floral notes combined with a twist of lime, this new variant of the country’s No.1 cider brand – Somersby tingles cider lovers’ taste buds with a sparkling floral bubbly perfect for any occasion.

The Elderflower is the white blossom of the Elderberry tree. Its delicate and subtle lacy white flowers are attributed with medicinal properties and is frequently used for flavouring food and drinks in Europe. This enjoyable union of Elderflower and Lime creates a perfect balance of sweetness and sourness, making it perfect when paired with food. The Somersby Elderflower Lime, in 4.5% alcohol content, is available in bottle (330ml) and can (320ml) at major hypermarkets and supermarkets nationwide.

“Proud to be in the forefront of innovation, we are excited to offer cider lovers a new cider – Somersby Elderflower Lime adding to the existing variants of apple, blackberry and sparkling rosé. By adding a twist of lime into the elderflower, this cider simply tastes so refreshing and boasts a pleasant floral aroma,” said Carlsberg Malaysia Managing Director Lars Lehmann during the media and trade launch held at Morganfield’s Da Men Mall in USJ.

“Somersby Elderflower Lime was launched in Singapore early this year and it has since grown exponentially and contributed significantly to the cider business of our subsidiary Carlsberg Singapore. We are confident that this new variant will further strengthen Somersby’s foothold as the No.1 cider position in Malaysia,” he added.

To unveil this floral bubbly cider, Carlsberg Malaysia feted guests and media to an all-white- themed evening of serenity and casual elegance with the amazing Scandinavian-style garden decor, dotted with lacy white Elderflowers, peppered with a garden feel and complete with an eye-catching flower tunnel, impressing guests with a unique experience of a picture-perfect summer.
