According to a report by broadcaster ERR.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWe have decided to make and sell wines and mulled wine until the end of 2023. The main reason we are closing down our small alcohol business is our desire to focus on P\u00f5ltsamaa&#8217;s main business, i.e. the production of food and non-alcoholic beverages, \u201dsaid Madeleine Tults, Communications Director of Orkla Eesti AS, which owns P\u00f5ltsamaa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">According to Tults, the production of non-alcoholic mulled wine is planned to continue in the future. Tults stated that there is very strong competition in the Estonian alcohol market and that in order to be profitable, the company must focus all its efforts on the production and marketing of alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">According to Tults, it must also be borne in mind that P\u00f5ltsamaa&#8217;s wine production equipment is old and that modernization would require substantial investment. \u201cBecause of the wine history of the P\u00f5ltsamaa factory, we will keep the brand, and we are not going to sell it,\u201d Tults said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; P\u00f5ltsamaa, which has been producing well-known and beloved berry and fruit wines in Estonia for more than a hundred &hellip; <span class=\"read-more-excerpt\">Read more<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":100691,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[42],"tags":[337,13454,13882,13883,13884,13885,13886,13887],"class_list":["post-101187","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-shopping-en","tag-wine","tag-mulled-wine","tag-poltsamaa-2","tag-madeleine-tults-2","tag-poltsamaa-wine-2","tag-poltsamaa-mulled-wine-2","tag-orkla-eesti-as-2","tag-estonian-wine-2"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=101187"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101187\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":101189,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101187\/revisions\/101189"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/100691"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=101187"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balticguide.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=101187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
