Clint Wilfred & Sons – Good taste for rapidly expanding markets

Clint Wilfred & Sons Ltd brings a carefully selected portfolio of drinks to the Gulf region and Southeast Asia. The young company targets fast-moving products in the HORECA – Hotel/Restaurant/Café and Hotel/Restaurant/Catering market segment. It is run by Clint Wilfred, whose family has been in the spirit production and distribution business for over four decades.

One main focus of business activities lies in the United Arab Emirates. To offer new products on this rapidly growing market is a great challenge, as the demand for premium and niche products is constantly increasing and customers’ wishes are very diverse. The range, therefore, also includes non-alcoholic and carbonated soft drinks, still and sparkling water, ready-to-drink teas, energy sport drinks and other New Age drinks. There is also a strong focus on a wide selection of packaging sizes and formats.

One special product in the spirits product category is Count Cristo Blended Scotch Whisky, a premium blend with a high malt content from the Scottish Speyside region and with some lowland malt for added depth and character.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Count Cristo Blended Scotch Whisky.

2B Hemp Gin: Styrian gin experience

Two visionaries, Armin Breinl (doctor, drink creator, musician) and Wolfgang Thomann (gin maker), have created a completely new gin experience with real hemp powder: 2B HEMP GIN (inspired by AEIJST). On 17th November 2018, the two invited guests to the first tasting of 2B HEMP GIN in the AEIJST GIN distillery in St. Nikolai in the Sausal Valley.

Made from organic juniper berries, this innovative gin has an impressive, mild and fruity taste and a typical hemp note. Due to its unique aroma, it not only tastes good neat, but also creates a ‘wow’ effect in cocktails – as proven in the long drink Styrian Pale Gin AEIJST refined with 2B HEMP.

For thousands of years, hemp has been grown as a valuable plant, be it for rope, fabric, paper or as an active ingredient in ointments and tinctures. Hemp has always been highly valued for its medicinal properties, yet recently has been demonised as an addictive drug and has suffered under its ensuing prohibition, originating in the USA. These days hemp is regaining importance and is being used more as a luxury food as well as in medicine as a therapeutic agent.

The Lifestyle Trading company, run by Armin Breinl, is an innovative beverage producer, which is already known amongst trade professionals for its sugar-free ‘func- tional fruit drinks’. The drinks have a high fruit content (more than 50 per cent) and additional natural, vital substances and have an energising, relaxing and regenerative effect.

At the World Spirits Award, there was silver for 2B HEMP GIN.

DYC: Suntory Global Spirits

DYC was founded to prove that high-quality whisky can be produced in Spain. Nicomedes García learned about traditional methods on trips to Scotland and decided to set up a distillery in Spain. His birthplace, Segovia, a historic town northwest of Madrid, proved to be ideal for the first Spanish whisky distillery: DYC – Destilerías y Crianza del Whisky. Today it belongs to the Beam Suntory Group and is the only Spanish brand in this portfolio.

The Molino del Arco in Palazuelos de Eresma, a building from the 15th century, was chosen as the location. Paper was produced there until 1680 and flour in the 19th century. Whisky production began in 1959, and the first batch was bottled in 1963. Decisive factors in the choice of location were the Scottish-like climate, the quality of the grain from Castilla y León and the purity of the mineral-poor water of the River Eresma, which flows around the distillery at over 1,000 metres above sea level. The meltwater from the peaks of the Sierra de Guadarrama contributes to the special quality. In addition to the production of whisky, the preservation of water quality is also a factor. The water is clarified, cleaned and filtered in an in-house plant, and 98 percent returns to the River Eresma.

Two types of whisky are produced and double-distilled using traditional methods: the DYC Pure Malt and the DYC Single Malt, and blended whiskies with malted barley and corn. The double distillation in column stills is followed by at least three years of maturation in American oak barrels.

At the World Spirits Award, there was Gold for DYC 8 and DYC 15, and Silver for DYC Whisky Blended and DYC 12.
