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.

Drink Syndikat: Enjoy bar culture at home

Since 2014, Erik Pfauth and Jens Hoffmann have been creating cocktail kits for at home use – of the highest standards and inspired by the international bar scene. They cooperate for this purpose with renowned bartenders and independent distilleries. Their fascination for high-quality spirits and the knowledge gathered in recent years are concentrated in the spirits collection. To date, a spirits quartet with innovative character has been created: 3 x rum and 1 x gin.

Erik and Jens are fascinated by rum, because there is scarcely another spirit that is so multifaceted, in their view. It is therefore their centrepiece for the creation of new taste sensations. Nicolas Kröger from Wagemut Produktion GmbH is responsible for development and production. He imports Caribbean rum and refines it in sherry and port barrels, among others – with his expertise and according to the directives of Drink Syndikat.

Cookie Dough Rum has an enticing biscuit-vanilla aroma, integrated into rums from Barbados and Panama, and matured in white oak barrels. Port Cask Rum Panama is a blend of 8, 13 and 18-year-old rum, matured in tawny port barrels. Hazelnut Rum is a duet of rum and spirits with natural hints of roasted hazelnuts. The rum from the renowned Foursquare Rum Distillery from Barbados matured for twelve years in ex-bourbon whiskey barrels. It was ground with the hazelnut spirit of the Black Forest distiller Stefan Marder. The blend matured for three months in freshly emptied Pedro Ximénez sherry barrels.

At the World Spirits Award, gold was awarded to Cookie Dough Infused Rum, and silver to Hazelnut Rum, Port Cask Rum and the Dry Gin house gin.

LA SU Gin: Exotic holiday feeling in a glass

Alexander Kayser and Christopher Schuh are true gin lovers and founders of the brand LA SU Gin – a registered brand of Expo Outline Messebau und Event GmbH in Altenstadt, with Alexander Kayser as the managing partner.

After exploring many trains of thought, it was clear to both of them that it had to be exotic. LA SU Gin is a premium handcrafted gin with a hint of fruity mango. Distilled in small batches, traditionally and without additives, it is made in one of the oldest distilleries in Europe. The mango gives it a special freshness and balances the tart notes of the spices perfectly. Next to the mango, LA SU evokes a sense of travel. Enjoy a holiday feeling and discover new taste sensations. The elaborate bottle design reflects a love of detail and certainly leaves an impression.

At the World Spirits Award, bronze was achieved by LA SU *MGO* Natural Mango.
