Berentzen Group: 260 years of cultured distilled spirits

Berentzen Group is an innovative beverage company that boasts a wide portfolio and develops, produces and markets varied and fashionable drinks concepts. The portfolio includes spirits, alcohol-free beverages and fresh juices. With over 260 years of experience, they are one of the oldest national manufacturers of spirits and have a market presence in over 60 countries to date, with brands such as Berentzen and Puschkin as well as reasonably priced private label products.

In April 2023, Norden Sea Salt Gin was launched on the German market under the Doornkaat brand. It is a speciality on the gin shelf, as selected North Sea botanicals create an extraordinary and intense taste experience: juniper provides the spice, sea buckthorn and rosehip the fruity tartness. Norden Sea Salt Gin is rounded off with a pinch of sea salt. This spirit spreads the genuine nature and authenticity of the North Sea coast throughout Germany. It is versatile and can be enjoyed neat, on ice or mixed as a long drink or cocktail.

Tres Países Premium Rum combines distillates from Guatemala, Panama and the Dominican Republic. After being stored for up to eight years in American white oak bourbon casks, they come to Europe for refinement by the master blender. The characteristics of the countries provide the taste profile: vanilla and butterscotch, elegant fruit, banana and chocolate. It is also available in a port cask finish, which is refined in aged casks for another six months.

At the World Spirits Award 2026, there was Gold for Tres Países Premium Rum and Silver for Doornkaat Norden Sea Salt Gin.

LILAH – Creamy liqueur made from aromatic chai

Lilah is the modern interpretation of the traditional oriental chai tea and combines the taste of the tea with the creaminess of an exquisite cream liqueur. Combined with choice spices from the Far East, the popular chai tea has been re-invented as a new taste sensation. Only natural spice extracts are used (ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, fennel seeds, cloves, vanilla, black tea, rooibos), no artificial flavours or additives are added.

In large areas of Southern Asia and in the Orient, chai is a general term for tea. Over the last few years and with increasing popularity, especially in Europe it has become synonymous with Masala Chai, the national drink of India. The recipes can vary according to region or even household, but the main ingredients are water, milk, black tea and various spices. Chai originated in Ayurvedic teachings and is well-known for its beneficial health effects. Lilah works the same but as a new way to enjoy chai, whether as an addition to hot tea, as a delicious ingredient in tasty cocktails or as an innovative addition to desserts such as chocolate mousse. The sophisticated bottle design also makes the spicy drink an ideal present.

Vincent Aeberhard, CEO of Fusion Drinks, developed the product: “After years of developing and trying out different ingredients we are proud to be able to present a modern interpretation of the traditional tea. The design of the bottle was inspired by Indian henna tattoos. The logo is intended to elegantly portray the blossoming of all the ingredients.”

The concept won over the jury at the World Spirits Award: Lilah was awarded gold.

Vittorio Capovilla: Perfection of quality

Vittorio Capovilla typifies Italian distillation culture – with elegant fruit brandies and perfect grappa. Only the fresh marc of different grape varieties is used for the excellent grappa range and the raw materials for the fruit brandies are selected. Only 100% distillates (no gin or spirits) were produced until 15 years ago, when he began to distil rum. In the year 2018, Capovilla received the WSA‘s lifetime achievement award.

At the foot of Monte Grappa in the Venetian Maritime Alps, in the historical cellars of Villa Dolfin in Rosà near Bassano, stands the modern distillery of a quality fanatic – constructed according to a perfectionist’s design.

The number one Italian distiller is also an international star. Whilst still managing to keep his feet on the ground, ‘Gianni’ is still the same kind and charming, decent, nature-loving person who is full of passion and zest for life. In his philosophy, he is uncompromising and persistent, from the search for raw materials to the design of the bottles. The highest quality is still paramount where grappa and fruit distillates are concerned, which are always produced without ‘sugar refining’, and which have established a new understanding of quality in the phrase ‘Spirits made in Italy’.

The World Class Distillery 2022 OBB and World Class Distillery 2022 GRAPPA received gold for Grappa Amarone legno, Distillato di Amarene di Montagna, Distillato Bierbrand legno, Grappa Barolo, Grappa Traminer, Grappa Moscato Giallo, Grappa Moscato Rosa, Distillato di Vino Diesel Farm and Distillato di Mele Cotogne. Silver was awarded to Distillato Prunus Aurum, Distillato di Sorbo dell’Uccellatore, Grappa Bassano Centenario and Distillato di Vino Parusso.
