    Jarlsberg var Norges første lisensierte produsent av Coca-Cola. Jarlsberg Mineralvann startet i Barkåker ved Tønsberg, men på grunn av kravene fra Coca-Cola måtte det bygges et nytt tapperi. Dette ble lagt til Oslo, og åpnet i 1938 som det andre Coca-Cola-tapperiet i Europa. Senere ble det bygget en stor fabrikk på Ensjø, før Jarlsberg gikk inn i Oslo-bryggeriene anført av Ringnes i 1981.

    «Jarlsberg was Norway’s first licensed producer of Coca-Cola. Jarlsberg Mineralvann started out in Barkåker near Tønsberg, but due to the demands of Coca-Cola, a new bottling plant had to be built. This was moved to Oslo and opened in 1938 as the second Coca-Cola bottling plant in Europe. Later, a large factory was built at Ensjø, before Jarlsberg became part of the Oslo breweries led by Ringnes in 1981.»

  3. I have a crate like that too, my grandma’s sister worked there

  4. Jarlsberg Mineralvann (mineral water), established 1933 in Tønsberg.The had a contract with Coca Cola, i believe the first norwegian Company to habe the license. Sp they had a plant and sales branch in Oslo.

    They were, as every other food and drinks manufacturer, bought up by Nora Industries, now Asko, in the 80s.

    There is no connection with Jarlsberg Mineralvann and Jarlsberg cheese *except* that both have ties to Tønsberg. Tine claims the cheese recipe is from Tønsberg, but that is story doesn’t have a rock solid foundation.
