Paul & Sons Spirits: The highest quality is a family matter

“Let us distil a gin” – with these five words, the journey to one of the most currently in demand London Dry Gins of the Palatinate region started five years ago. Inspired by new quality brands in the region and a lifelong passion for the subject, it was the logical consequence for Michael Paul. Uncompromising work followed, resulting in the London Dry Gin ‘Paul’ after 26 attempts. Michael Paul may have initiated it, but the foundation of its success and distinctive quality is a family matter. The three sons as well as their wives have taken on essential design, production and marketing tasks.

Manufacturing has taken place from the beginning on the premises of the distilling master Fedor Back at the traditional distillery in Dudenhofen, where the 300-litre copper pot still transforms the high-quality macerate into the ‘Paul’ so highly prized by enthusiasts, that also forms the basis for ‘Paulchen’. The distinctive taste experience of both London Dry Gins is easily accounted for: absolute care in every phase, handpicked botanicals and the painstaking supervision of the brewery process in small batches. This year, a new member is joining the family: ‘Pauline’ can hardly wait to earn its place in the hearts of true gin fans. Like all other gins, it is also filled into a stylish pharmacy bottle – a total of 5,000 a year.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Pauline.

Mozart Chocolate Liqueur: Exquisitely chocolaty pleasurable experiences from Salzburg

Masterful perfection and unique enjoyment through its exceptional taste – this is the signature of Mozart Chocolate Liqueur, an exceptional chocolaty symphony, using only natural ingredients and blended in a perfectly balanced ratio to achieve its unmistakable flavour profile. It has been made with great attention to detail by a master distiller and chocolatier, inspired by the world’s most popular chocolates. The brand originated in Austria, but it is also on the road to international success with over 90 percent sold in export.

Every Mozart bottle is produced and filled in the distillery in Salzburg – just as they have been for over 40 years. Each individual production stage demands the highest quality standards, which are only possible thanks to decades of experience. The elaborate and time-consuming process of converting the recipe for the Original Mozart Liqueur involves many individual steps, some of which are still carried out by hand. Mozart Chocolate Liqueur can be enjoyed in a variety of ways: pure and unadulterated, slightly chilled on the rocks, or for pure indulgence, as a special chocolaty ‘choctail’.

At the World Spirits Award, there was double gold and the titles Spirit of the Year 2024 for Mozart Coffee Chocolate and Mozart Cream Chocolate, gold for Mozart Dark Chocolate and Mozart Coconut Chocolate, and silver for Mozart Pumpkin Spice, Mozart White Chocolate Vanilla Cream and Mozart White Chocolate Cream Strawberry.

Bimmerle: Know-how meets regionality and trend awareness

At the production site in the Black Forest town of Sasbach, which was opened in 2015, this family business sets innovative standards in technology, sustainability and environmental protection. For the last five decades, Bimmerle has strived for the highest quality, with focussed know-how, modern high-tech and the traditional art of distilling. This is the first distillery in Germany where all the heating requirements and power generation are covered by the burning of fruit stones combined with woodchips from the region.

In Germany and on the European market, Bimmerle is a leader in the fruit brandies sector with the Lörch brand. In order to make the ‘playground’ more interesting, the brand identity was modernised in 2024 and will be extended in 2025 by a fruit brandy range matured in wooden casks. Needle Black Forest Gin is among the top 5 most widely sold gins in Germany. The portfolio has been expanded since 2018 with WOOD STORK Spiced Rum and the EVERMANN Black Forest whiskies Theo & Wilhelm introduced in 2022. The Black Forest distillery has enriched the liqueur and aperitif market with as many as five exciting creations under the DON PASQUALE brand.
