Perkele Mugs

Perkele might be the most known finnish word around the world. It is usually among the first words we Finns teach to foreigners.

Are you Powered By Perkele? Whole Finland is. Finland was built on Powered By Perkele. It energizes you, it empowers you. Become Powered By Perkele!

For some reason Finnish people have this “I will manage” so strongly stuck in their heads that receiving help is almost like a sign of weakness. “Ei tartte auttaa” literally means “No need to help” and it’s somewhat hilarious if you clearly see someone needs help yet declines from it. Only in Finland.

Perkele. Most likely the most powerful curseword ever created by mankind. Cannot be translated without loss. Versatile word that can be used alone or repeated indefinitely.

Finland was built with sisu and perkele! Finland fought wars with sisu and perkele! We all need some sisu and perkele in our lives!

Finland declared independence in 1917. Ending moments of World War I had left it’s marks in Finland as well and the nation was built basically from ground up. Can you imagine how many loud Perkele’s it must have taken for Finland to become from a pile of rubble to three times Happiest Country In The World? Perkele for that achievement!

How would you review year 2020? Shitty year in every way. Or in Finnish "Aivan järjetöntä paskaa alusta loppuun!"

Title says it all really. Love Finland written on barcode.

While Finland was chosen as the Happiest Country In The World 2020, the United Nations also named Helsinki as the Happiest City In The World. Could it be the beautiful Helsinki Skyline at night that causes happiness? Whatever the reason, Hellsinki deserves it perkele!

Everyone knows the famous abbreviation of WTF but did you really think that was what we were after? Of course not! We made our own abbreviation for WTF and it is of course Welcome To Finland!

Saatanan tunarit was from Kekkonen's (president of Finland) 1975 draft letter to a group of high officials like undersecreteries, directors of state-owned firms, professors, etc., who criticized favoring candidates to high offices by political grounds instead of merit. Kekkonen felt that the criticism could have complicated some planned appointments.
