AnderWald: A place full of stories

This tale began not in a cellar, not in a distillery, but in a small pub in Dublin. A place full of stories, with golden drops that whispered of old recipes. It was there that they had the idea to create their own fine spirits, not just to enjoy the ones already there. Unique pieces as an expression of their own path. Where small miracles are created from water, fire, earth and time. And where every drop tells the story of its origin.

This young, independent spirits producer in Deutsch-Brodersdorf is dedicated to combining regionality, traditional distilling craftsmanship and innovative barrel ageing. Philipp Zima, a trained chemist, developed the recipes and production processes himself with scientific precision. Raw materials such as Styrian apples for the brandy and Viennese barley malt for the whisky are used in the process. They have respect for the classics, as well as the courage to think differently. Their heart is in nature, their gaze is deep – and their curiosity is fuelled by alchemy.

Maturation takes place in selected European barrels, as well as classic oak and local chestnut wood, which lends a unique, warm aroma. A central element of the philosophy is the targeted barrel reference: their own maturing barrels filled with apple brandy are used for individual maturation. Sustainability, transparency in the origin of raw materials and uncompromising quality characterise the way they work.

At the World Spirits Award, there was Silver for Single Malt Whisky Wiener Malz, Apfel Edelbrand Holz and Wodka Reserve.

The vision of RHS is exceptional performance in the production of spirits in the federal state of Hawaii, by combining old and new European, Asian and American recipes with authentic fruits and herbs, in order to satisfy customers on the mainland and internationally with excellent spirits.

Prevelon: Premium vodka by order of the Kremlin

Kremlin Premium Vodka was created as the official drink for all diplomatic receptions and banquets at the Kremlin and was intended as the hallmark of high-ranking events. The decision in favour of the most traditional Russian drink was unanimous. It was only produced on special order and in limited amounts. The first large batch of this ‘protocol’ vodka was ordered in February 1945 for the Yalta Conference. Kremlin Award Grand Premium came on the market in 2011 and is exported to 38 countries, and in many of them it holds the top position in the ultra-premium vodka category. Since 2016, the product range has included Kremlin Award Classic, which enjoys great popularity amongst all partners.

Two products have been added to the product range. Kremlin Award Organic is based on alcohol that is produced from the highest quality organic wheat, and on natural drinking water. The vodka passes through a multi-stage purification through pure birchwood charcoal. The alcohol for Kremlin Award Vintage is made from organic grains from the same harvest. The wheat grains are stored in a grain silo until they reach their physiological maturity in order to get a high-quality base product. The ‘luxury alcohol’ is then mixed with natural drinking water and, after purification, is granted a resting period. Production is limited to the year stated on the label.

At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Kremlin Award Organic and Kremlin Award Vintage.

Klippenziege: New era in the world of gin

In December 2015, four friends captured the ‘spirit’ of an idea: they were thinking about gin. Nearly a year later a small batch was bottled by hand. The individuality of a gin lies in the combination of the botanicals, in this case it is the exotic selection: mate tea, goji berries, physalis and a hint of rose. The Klippenziege is a New Western Dry Gin, in which juniper plays the main role amongst the other botanicals.

It is produced in the Habbel Distillery, which guarantees excellent quality thanks to its experience – it was established in 1878 and is now in the family’s fourth generation. The former Korn distillery in Sprockhövel with adjoining farmland is now the largest fruit distillery in the Ruhr region, as a traditional manufacturer it stands out with its attention to detail. The entire manufacturing process at Klippenziege can also be observed on-site.

The bottle and the label are also special. Designer Levent Aydin drew it carefully by hand, and then digitalised it before perfecting it. First it is printed, then coated, then stamped and embossed. The elegant result stands for friendship, solidarity and love. Working together in a friendly and familiar atmosphere connects people with a passion for life who share one important belief: that the product should encourage people to slow down, allowing for mindful enjoyment.

At the World Spirits Award, there was silver for Mate Dry Gin.
