Schwarze & Schlichte – Brand personalities from Westphalia

The family business Schwarze & Schlichte from Westphalia has been representing the highest quality spirits for the last 345 years with a distinct range of national specialities, regional traditional brands and successful international innovations. This top quality is based on a distilling tradition acquired over centuries which has been passed down over twelve generations. Even today, distilling and maceration still take place at the company’s own distillery where plenty of time and skill are invested. The selection and processing of the best raw materials and continuous control of the production process ensure a consistently high quality. One factor for success is the ongoing brand management in accordance with the specific requirements of the various brand personalities.

Three Sixty Vodka is one of the purest and mildest vodkas in the world. A fourfold distillation process ensures tangible softness and exceptional clarity while the purity of the vodka is all down to the time-consuming “Diamond Filtration” process: the finest filters are used, set with crystals like diamond dust, to remove even the smallest of suspended particles from the distillate. Even the packaging is unique: the facet-cut bottle of pure white shiny glass sets off this premium vodka to perfection. A black velvet label completes the sophisticated design.

The Grappa Bianca from Scavi & Ray is characterised by its full-bodied balanced flavour with powerful and intense aromas of marc. This crystal-clear brandy is soft and deliciously balanced thanks to the exquisite skill of the master distillery. The intense and fruity aroma is reminiscent of the sun-soaked vineyards in Italy.

Both products received a silver medal at the World-Spirits.

South Seas Distilleries: India’s pioneer of premium spirits

South Seas Distilleries is one of the most traditional distilleries in India and embodies over four generations of craftsmanship, combining local raw materials and a spirit of innovation with global quality standards. Founded in 1984 in Dahanu, Maharashtra, South Seas was one of the early pioneers of producing classic single malt whiskies in India. Early on, the distillery relied on high-quality pot still technology from Scotland and later built the largest copper pot stills in the country as well as an extensive maturation warehouse for spirits with depth and character.

The philosophy of the distillery is based on a simple but powerful credo: quality before quantity, substance before spectacle. This claim is reflected in products such as the Crazy Cock single malt whisky, a multi-matured India single malt that displays a rich aroma profile with warmth, complexity and finesse thanks to careful cask selection (ex-bourbon, ex-sherry).

However, South Seas goes beyond the classic whisky tradition. With Six Brothers Mahura, a centuries-old Indian spirit category has been revived. Presented as a luxurious heritage spirit with global ambition, they are an expression of India’s cultural depth and regional heritage – unique in this form worldwide. At a time when the premium spirits market is increasingly looking for authenticity and origin, South Seas is sending out a clear signal, namely that tradition and innovation can be combined to create spirits that delight experts and curious connoisseurs alike.

At the World Spirits Award, there was Gold for Six Brothers Mahura, and Silver for Crazy Cock The Single Malt Whisky – Madhuca 1 and Crazy Cock The Single Malt Whisky – DHUA.

Brennerei Südstraße – Aroma has top priority

A love for old orchards was the starting platform, followed by the first distilling efforts, before a distillery was installed in Schwanau-Ottenheimam Rhein in south Baden, between Strasbourg and Freiburg in 2006. At the same time, Lutz Weide started his training as a state registered distiller (2008) and fine brandy sommelier (2012), additionally gaining WSET Level 2 in London.

Since 2014, distilling has taken place in a new facility with an ‘aromat’. This is a booster with a 14 metre copper loop, whose design makes possible a gentle, uniform heating of the alcohol vapour which affords absolute priority to the aroma. The results are excellent, but double-distillation in low wine and middle cut methods is still used. Only their own fruit from an approximately four hectare meadow orchard is used. They use all the common fruits, but also regional specialities like quince, pears and apples. The demand for absolute top quality is delivered by the family through hand selection of the fruit, meticulous cleanliness as well as a great deal of patience at the distilling apparatus. The various spice spirits of the so-called ‘South Street Series’ are a unique speciality, manufactured using sieve distilling methods.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for South Street Aniseed Spirit, and silver for South Street No. 1 London Dry Gin, South Street Caraway Spirit, South Street Plum and Caraway Spirit from the oak barrel.
