Clint Wilfred & Sons – Good taste for rapidly expanding markets

Clint Wilfred & Sons Ltd brings a carefully selected portfolio of drinks to the Gulf region and Southeast Asia. The young company targets fast-moving products in the HORECA – Hotel/Restaurant/Café and Hotel/Restaurant/Catering market segment. It is run by Clint Wilfred, whose family has been in the spirit production and distribution business for over four decades.

One main focus of business activities lies in the United Arab Emirates. To offer new products on this rapidly growing market is a great challenge, as the demand for premium and niche products is constantly increasing and customers’ wishes are very diverse. The range, therefore, also includes non-alcoholic and carbonated soft drinks, still and sparkling water, ready-to-drink teas, energy sport drinks and other New Age drinks. There is also a strong focus on a wide selection of packaging sizes and formats.

One special product in the spirits product category is Count Cristo Blended Scotch Whisky, a premium blend with a high malt content from the Scottish Speyside region and with some lowland malt for added depth and character.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Count Cristo Blended Scotch Whisky.

Feinbrennerei Sasse: A pioneer of Korn distilling

Feinbrennerei Sasse perfectly combines the tradition of craftsmanship with the development of innovation. On the evening of St. Nicholas’ Day in 1987, Rüdiger Sasse held a bottle of Korn (grain distillate) in his hand, which his grandfather had distilled decades before. This moment was the inspiration for an idea that was to change the world of distilling, namely to redefine Korn as a high-quality spirit.

Sasse was the first distillery to recognise the potential of barrique ageing for Korn and perfected it. The resulting mild, golden Korn is a matured and complex grain distillate that no longer has anything in common with the simple ‘clear spirit’ produced long ago. Today, young and committed distillers continue the tradition, believe in regional raw materials, water from their own spring and organic ingredients. In Schöppingen, high-quality distillates are created with lots of passion and patience, handcrafted from the first ingredient through to the final bottling. This way, Feinbrennerei Sasse not only retains its history of almost 300 years but makes it shine again and again with new ideas.

The World Class Distillery 2025 was awarded Gold to Nju Korn Mild, Lagerkorn V.S.O.P., Nju Korn fruchtig, Nju Korn wuchtig, Lagerkorn Atlantic Finish, Cigar Special, Lagerkorn Rebellion, Heide Gin, Lagerkorn Good Luck Preussen and Limoncello.

Blackriver Gin: Organic spirit from Saarland

Blackriver Gin is the first organic gin from the Bliesgau Biosphere Reserve in Saarland. The two founders, Christian Ehrhardt and Christian Hurth, are proud Saarland locals who also spent their childhood here. It was important to them to create a gin that reflected their own values: a focus on regionality, sustainability and dedication to the homeland. Great importance was therefore attached to the quality and the origins of the ten botanicals, including typical regional ingredients such as buckhorn plantain.

In the interests of high product standards and the aim of offering 100% organic quality with regional ingredients, they looked for a suitable partner and found one in the Monter Distillery in Hemmersdorf in the Saargau region, near the French border. The family enterprise has been in operation since 1846, now already in its sixth generation, and has organic certification. An organic pure alcohol on a wheat basis is distilled with the botanicals in small batches. Several macerates give the gin its special colour and individual flavour. The careful production process comprises many controlled steps to preserve the aromas of the organic botanicals. Their expert adviser was Wolfgang Maffert, a fine spirit sommelier from the distillery and a gin lover. With a lot of experience and a special touch, the gin composition is very accomplished. The dense aromas combine herbs such as rosemary, apple mint and lavender, as well as fruity elements such as raspberries, blueberries and lemon peel, with a subtle hint of juniper. The taste is pleasantly mild and lasting. The colour is unusual: a delicate violet with a hint of rosé.

At the World Spirits Award, silver was awarded to Blackriver Bliesgau Bio Gin.
