Georg Hemmeter – XUXU, Escorial, SILLA EL FUERTE
Georg Hemmeter – strawberry drinks with exceptional flavour guaranteed
The name Georg Hemmeter – a company of the Underberg Group – stands for innovative spirits, in particular the XUXU range. The fresh and fruity strawberry drink contains 66 percent fruit plus crystal-clear vodka, rounded off with a dash of lime. The harmony between the sweetness of the fruit and just 15% alcohol by volume is created using a special production method. XUXU Ten, the little luxury in a 250 ml aluminium bottle with only 10% alcohol by volume, is dressed to party – it is still relatively new to the market, yet is already at home in all the world’s top party venues.
XUXU can be served in so many different ways: chilled, neat, on crushed ice, as a dessert topping, with sparkling wine or with other mixers – XUXU tastes heavenly and offers fresh and fruity pleasure. Welcome to Berrydise!
Initially the absolute top star in Greece, XUXU is now also number 1 in Russia, and extremely popular in Turkey and Italy too.
XUXU Strawberry & Vodka Drink and XUXU Ten won Gold at the World Spirits Award 2014.

Valamo Monastery Distillery – Absinthe from the far North
Distilling has been a traditional part of life in European monasteries ever since the first crusade in the 11th century, when the monks learned the craft in the Middle East. According to documents, the Valamo Monastery dates back to the 12th century and has been at the centre of orthodox culture in Finland for nearly 850 years. The only orthodox monastery in the country lies in the eastern Finnish landscape of South Savo, with extensive lakes and forests. In 2013, the distilling tradition was reawakened, today Valamo is the only monastery in the world which produces its own whisky, gin and absinthe. Liqueurs made from aromatic wild berries also mature in the quiet monastery. The ingredients come from the surrounding countryside – pure spring water, arctic plants and aromatic wild berries create the exceptional taste and quality of the products.
Fascinated and inspired by the mysterious reputation of absinthe, the monks decided to create their own absinthe in 2016. An old French book from the 19th century formed the basis for their extensive experiments. During the development processes, the monks collected information on authentic recipes and indigenous ingredients from around the world. After a lot of hard work, Valamo’s master distiller, Asko Ryynänen, created an absinthe which embodies a long history and mysterious quality – a traditional product with a modern touch, kept in striking ‘medicinal’ bottles.
At the World Spirits Award, there was silver for Valamo Mint and Valamo Gin.
