CCU: Pisco from Chile
Compañía Cervecerías Unidas (CCU) is a company with a wide reach, that is primarily active in Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Colombia. Since its foundation in 1902, CCU has developed into an important player in the drinks world, especially in the categories of soft drinks, beer, wine, cocktails and spirits. The latter are distributed through Compañía Pisquera de Chile (CPCH). CPCH was formed in March 2005 from the merging of CCU and Cooperativa Agricola Control Pisquero Elqui Y Limari (CONTROL). This new company combines the strength and comprehensive knowledge of Pisco Control and is reinforced further by the CCU distribution and brand development capacity. CPCH boasts an impressive portfolio with various brand products, such as Pisco Mistral, Tres Erres, Control C, Campanario, Gin Kantal and others. The company is present in more than 15 countries worldwide, although the focus is on the USA, Chile, Germany and Argentina.
The production of piscos and other distillates is concentrated primarily on five valleys spanning two regions: the Copiapó and Huasco Valleys in the Atacama region, and the Elqui, Limari and Choapa Valleys in the Coquimbo region. These areas are characterised by a semi-arid climate with nine to ten dry months, plenty of sunshine and high summer temperatures. Together with the clear sky and the large temperature difference between day and night, this contributes to grape maturity with a high sugar content.
Gin Kantal won silver at the World Spirits Award.

Cervejaria Backer: Innovation from Brazil
The Backer Brewery was founded in 1999 by the Lebbos brothers near Serra do Curral in the southeast of Brazil and now has 80 employees. With 25 bottled beer varieties, every month 800,000 litres are produced, according to company director, Paula Lebbos. The focus is currently on starting out in the world of whiskey, something she was introduced to at Jack Daniel’s in the USA in 2010. This prompted the desire to make their own whisky. As in the past, when there was a market niche for craft beer, the possibility of filling a niche for single malt also became evident here.
The company also owns a bar in the capital city, Belo Horizonte: Templo Cervejeiro. As well as their beer portfolio, the two innovative spirits, whiskey and gin, are also offered. 3 Lobos Whiskey Artesanal Experience is distilled in specially manufactured copper stills following Scottish tradition, with malted barley – which is also used in some beers as brewing malt – and matures for five years in American oak barrels (Jim Beam Bourbon). For the first batch, more than 5,000 numbered bottles were filled. Lebbos Hop Dry Gin combines traditional botanicals such as juniper and angelica root with the essence of craft beer: hops. Its lightness and freshness make this gin a real pleasure to drink, especially in a gin & tonic.
At the World Spirits Award, gold was awarded to 3 Lobos Whiskey and Lebbos Hop Dry Gin.
