"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to speak about a topic that is very important in terms of maintaining a variety of regional products and protecting traditional products, namely ‘
’ (Czech beer).
It was this name, ‘
’, that was published in the Official Journal of the European Union in the middle of January this year, together with a proposal to register it as a protected geographical designation.
‘
’ is unique not only according to its consumers but also according to brewing industry experts and Commission officials. Due to the way in which the Czech brewing industry developed in the past, the types of malt and hops used and the brewing processes used have all given ‘
’ a taste that is different from European beers such as Heineken or Stella Artois.
The Czech Republic was pressing for registration for more than three years. Long and exhausting negotiations culminated in publication in the Official Journal.
I would like to thank the officials of the European Commission as well as the Czech experts for their responsible approach to this matter. I believe that from now on nothing will prevent ‘
’ from becoming a part of Europe’s cultural heritage."@en1
