Almdudler Soft Drink

Almdudler is a famous Austrian soft drink, often described as the national beverage of Austria. Created in 1957 by Erwin Klein, it is an herbal soda made from a secret recipe of 32 different alpine herbs. The brand's signature glass bottle features a couple in traditional Austrian costume, emphasizing its heritage and cultural significance.

Historically and presently, Almdudler remains an independent family-owned business. Unlike many beverage brands that have been acquired by multinational conglomerates, Almdudler is still owned by the Klein family. While they utilize licensed partners for bottling and distribution in various markets (such as Coca-Cola Hellenic in specific regions), the brand and its formula remain strictly under Austrian family ownership.
