Alexandrion Group: A big player from Romania

The largest and most successful spirits and wine business in Romania has a comprehensive portfolio with leading brands in all categories as well as traditional Romanian products, which are known nationally and internationally for their quality. Tradition is honoured in the production process that follows their own authentic recipes with the best ingredients.

The Alexandrion Distillery is located in Dealu Mare, in the southern Romanian region of Prahova. 11,000 square metres provide a home to the distillery, filling plant – with a capacity of 40 million litres a year – and packaging area, while underground cellars cover 1,500 square metres with over 3,000 oak barrels and storage areas. 92 employ- ees work in 11 departments to optimise the production process. Modern technology and processes are used and the highest quality is guaranteed. Much has been invested in the purchase of automated, high-tech machinery for the processing, distillation and fermentation of the fruits that are used for the premium spirits. Using a flexible logis- tics model that can handle a complex product portfolio, the distillery counts as one of the most modern and efficient in South-Eastern Europe. With a philosophy of constant technological development and the procurement of new production plants, capacity is constantly being expanded in order to meet growing demands from national and international markets.

Fabian Vögtle Distillates – Experimenting to head in new directions

Whilst some people are born with a sunny disposition, others are born with fire in their bellies. Fabian Vögtle was born with a passion for alcohol – mainly the production of it, of course. As attractive as it may sound, there are strict legal regulations for hobby distillers. For the production of spirits, you need special distilling rights. Fabian Vögtle was lucky in this respect, as schnapps production is a tradition in his family. Since he inherited his grandfather’s distilling rights in 2008, the full-time wine-grower has been distilling his own brandies and liqueurs, such as the Williams Christ pear, Mirabellenwasser (mirabelle), Zibärtle brandy, grape marc brandy from Gewürztraminer and wine brandy in oak barrels. The original craft has been retained by the distiller from Vogtsburg: distilling takes place in the old distillery, which is heated by hand with wood. The distillates mature in demijohns in wooden barrels, no cold treatment or filtration takes place. Soft spring water from the Glottertal valley is used to dilute the brandies to drinking strength.

These days, the focus is on gin, because this can be produced all year round. Fabian Vögtle’s ‘dialect’ is his own interpretation of the popular drink, which combines family tradition and innovation. It contains an exotic melange of a total of 17 natural botanicals, including juniper, aniseed and coriander, as well as orange and lemon peel. The annual highlight is a limited gin selection of 499 bottles – something special for gin lovers!

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Mundart Kaiserstuhl Dry Gin.

Tradition Mexico – Tequila without compromises

The friends behind Padre azul, the new tequila in the premium segment, stand united on one matter: their passion for Mexico. “We appreciate high quality tequila, and with Padre azul we are bringing an exclusive product to Europe. We searched for the perfect distillery for a long time. At Tres Mujeres in Jalisco in the highlands of Mexico we found what we were looking for.” 100% Mexico – 100% handcraft – 100% agave.

These requirements and quality criteria apply to the whole production process, which is why each bottle also wears the sought-after quality seal from the Mexican authorities, “Consejo Regulador del Tequila” (CRT). There were no compromises when it came to the design of the bottles: they are made by hand and adorned with a 270g skull which represents the skull culture of Mexico.

Padre azul is available in three grades of maturity, depending on the length of storage. The Añejo usually spends eighteen months in French oak barrels to achieve a mature, full-bodied taste. The Reposado needs at least eight months in barrels for its subtle vanilla tone. The Blanco is a clear tequila which is bottled straight after distillation – it is soft and mild in taste. None of the three need salt or lemon – you can enjoy them neat. True to the motto: no compromises.

At the World Spirits Award, the trio was very successful: there was double gold for Super Premium Tequila Padre azul anejo, gold for Super Premium Tequila Padre azul reposado, and silver for Super Premium Tequila Padre azul blanco.
