Roust Hungary: Affordable luxury on the spirits market

Roust was founded in 1992 by the Russian businessman Roustam Tariko and quickly developed into a leading business group in the sale of premium spirits brands. One of the world’s leading vodka producers, the company is present in more than 80 countries. Roust owns production plants and distribution centres in Hungary, Russia and Italy. The comprehensive portfolio includes the flagship vodka brands of Russian Standard, Green Mark, Parliament and Zhuravli.

Thanks to its extensive knowledge in sales and marketing and its commitment to responsible alcohol consumption, Roust Hungary has become the leading supplier on the domestic spirits market. The largest premium spirits company in Hungary also sells the Royal, Zubrówka, Russian Standard, Gancia, Grants, Jägermeister and Metaxa brands.

For years, Royal Vodka has maintained its position as the most popular and well-known vodka brand in Hungary, and also remains market leader in terms of volume and turnover. Royal Vodka is produced using natural ingredients, from the grain to the well water, which contributes to its mild taste.

Krater Spirits: 400 years of tradition in Nördling

In the year 1621, the Alerheim innkeeper Caspar Beck received the entitlement from the ruling count at Oettingen ‘to brew beer and to run a brandy house’. This inheritance was continued by the family and supplemented by a herb liqueur with ginger and peppermint, which was launched on the market in 2013. The name ‘Kraterfeuer’ (Crater Fire) is due to its warming pungency. In 2015, Bavarian Krater Noster Distilled Dry Gin was added, for which wild juniper berries from the wild heath Rieser Heide were used, selected by hand on the edge of the crater that was formed 14 million years ago with the impact of a meteorite.

Since 2020, there is also Full Moon Krater Noster Distilled Dry Gin, a homage to the Apollo astronauts who trained here in 1970 for their voyage to the moon. NASA had sent them to Bavaria to prepare them for their mission in similar geological conditions. The suevite rock in the Ries region was fby that meteorite‘s impact – like the moon craters visible from Earth. Therefore, the Full Moon edition was composed with wild juniper berries from the edge of the crater and beguiling moon plants such as sweet-tart meadowsweet.

Krater Spirits has become a family project involving everyone. Sustainability as forethought for the forthcoming generations is practised in everyday life: the energy for manufacturing the products and heating the buildings comes from renewable sources.

At the World Spirits Award, double gold was awarded to Kraterfeuer, gold to Bavarian Krater Noster Distilled Dry Gin, and silver to Full Moon Krater Noster Distilled Dry Gin.

Brennerei Bernhard Leitner: Top products from Tyrol

Bernhard Leitner’s roughly 200 fruit trees are ideally situated on the southern slopes of the Sannatal Valley above Landeck, in the Tyrolean mountain village of Grins, at approximately 1,050 m above sea level. The award for Grins – Pians – Stanz as a connoisseur’s region for damson growing is recognition of the perfect climate in this region for fruit. The production of fruit brandies has a long tradition here. In recent years, increased attention has also been paid to improving the quality of the brandies.

At the Bernhard Leitner company, the then typical local ‘farmer schnapps’ has also always been distilled. Since 1998, small batches of fine brandies have been produced with an 80-litre column distillery from several local fruit varieties. From the onset it has been the aim of this small-scale amateur distiller (fruit-growing and fruit-processing are his side businesses) to match himself with the biggest names on the distilling scene. Continual further training and quality intensification were rewarded – since then, Mr Leitner has continued his streak of success.

Small yet refined, his product range is impressive with its excellent quality which always measures up to that of the famous professional distillers. Apples, pears and damsons, complemented with berries and wild fruits, dominate in Leitner’s range of approximately 20 brandies. The ingredients come from Tyrol, from his own small orchard and some individual fruit trees. Two months of storage follow the distillation; after this, the distillates are reduced to a palatable alcoholic content. Bottling takes place at the earliest after one to two years of storage.

The World Class Distillery 2022 OBB (Distillery of the Year – Bronze 2022) was awarded double gold for Rowanberry and Blackberry (World Spirits Award 2022), gold for Red Williams Pear and Spänling (plum), as well as silver for Raspberry.
