Casa Real – Singani: Bolivia’s ‘national schnapps’ in top quality

In 1981 Don Luis Granier Ballivian founded „Sociedad Agroindustrial del Valle“. His family has over three generations of experience in wine-growing and in the production of Singani, a high-proof brandy made from the Moscatel de Alejandria grape with controlled indication of origin. It is mainly produced in the traditional wine-growing region of Tarija, and the production process is similar to that of the Peruvian and Chilean pisco.

The company has grown over the years. The wine-growing area in the region of Santa Ana del Valle Central de Tarija covers 204 hectares, the winery has a storage capacity of nearly 5 million litres. Every year, 40,000 bottles of wine and 800,000 bottles of Singani are produced. Once the grapes have been pressed, the must is left to ferment without the mash for 5 to 21 days in steel tanks. Following distillation in Alambic, Andes spring water is used to dilute it to drinking strength. In contrast to brandy, Singani matures for some months in stainless steel tanks instead of oak barrels.

The distinct aroma reflects the fruity sweetness of the muscat grapes, which is why Singani is an ingredient in many traditional, Bolivian cocktails as well as a popular refinement for some dishes. Small amounts in compotes, fruit sauces or cakes create a subtle flavour. The Casa Real product line was quickly established as a premium brand in Bolivia and includes many types of Singani. The flagships are „Don Lucho Aniversario“, triple destilled from a selection of the best grapes from their own vineyards and „Don Lucho de Oro“, blend from a triple & quadruple destilled with passage through French oak barrels of first use.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Gran Singani, and silver for Don Lucho Gold Collection Singani Ultra Premium.

Ungava Spirits: Authentic products from Canada

Ungava Spirits, a leading Canadian manufacturer of high-quality products, has set up its production facilities, the distillery and offices in Cowansville, in Quebec’s beautiful Eastern Townships. As well as the internationally known Ungava Premium Dry Gin, the product range also includes maple liqueur, rum, vodka and vermouth. The spirits are produced in small batches using natural and local ingredients of the highest quality.

Ungava Gin is made from six rare Arctic botanicals from northern Quebec that are hand-harvested, dried and slowly steeped for five weeks for a natural extraction of their complex flavours and colours. Cabot Trail is inspired by Canadian tradition, combining maple and blueberry cream liqueur with maple syrup and blueberries. Quartz Vodka made from Canadian corn is purified by cryogenic treatment at extremely cold temperatures and micro-distilled five times for silky finesse and crystalline transparency. Chic Choc Black Spiced Rum is made of first-class West Indian rum, a blend of selected rums stored for three to seven years. The botanicals come 100% from Quebec – wild herbs from the Chic Choc mountain region on the Gaspésie peninsula. Baril Caché is based on the regional grains of rye, barley, corn and wheat as well as Canadian whiskies matured for at least five years.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Ungava Premium Dry Gin, Cabot Trail Maple and Blueberry Cream and Quartz Vodka, and silver for Rhum épicé CHIC CHOC Spiced Rum and Whisky Baril Caché.

Prevelon: Premium vodka by order of the Kremlin

Kremlin Premium Vodka was created as the official drink for all diplomatic receptions and banquets at the Kremlin and was intended as the hallmark of high-ranking events. The decision in favour of the most traditional Russian drink was unanimous. It was only produced on special order and in limited amounts. The first large batch of this ‘protocol’ vodka was ordered in February 1945 for the Yalta Conference. Kremlin Award Grand Premium came on the market in 2011 and is exported to 38 countries, and in many of them it holds the top position in the ultra-premium vodka category. Since 2016, the product range has included Kremlin Award Classic, which enjoys great popularity amongst all partners.

Two products have been added to the product range. Kremlin Award Organic is based on alcohol that is produced from the highest quality organic wheat, and on natural drinking water. The vodka passes through a multi-stage purification through pure birchwood charcoal. The alcohol for Kremlin Award Vintage is made from organic grains from the same harvest. The wheat grains are stored in a grain silo until they reach their physiological maturity in order to get a high-quality base product. The ‘luxury alcohol’ is then mixed with natural drinking water and, after purification, is granted a resting period. Production is limited to the year stated on the label.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Kremlin Award Organic and Kremlin Award Vintage.
