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.

Corralejo – Top tequila from blue agave
Tequilera Corralejo, also known as Hacienda Corralejo, was founded in 1775 by Pedro Sánchez de Tagle and was one of the first commercially producing distilleries for tequila in Mexico. The site is open to the public and today also houses the Museo del Vino y la Botella, a wine and bottle museum. The historic significance of the site highlights the fact that the ‘Father of Mexican independence’ was born here 220 years ago – the priest, scholar and revolutionary Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla. The premium products of the company are also typically Mexican and are exported to more than 77 countries across the world, in particular Asia, Europe, America and the Caribbean: Tequila Blanco, Reposado and Añejo and the special Triple Destilado and Gran Corralejo.
The basis for the tequila is blue agave (Weber Blue Agave) with its lengthy growing cycle of 8 years. It is produced in specific controlled areas and harvested by hand once fully ripe. The hearts of the agave (piña) weigh approx. 80 to 100 pounds. After checking the quality and sugar content, they are sliced and slowly cooked under steam in the stone oven for 30 hours. The agave juice is then extracted as part of a shredding process and fermented with yeast developed especially for the company. Distillation takes place in a copper vessel before the distillate is stored in French oak casks and bottled in traditional bottles with a special colour code for each product such as the Blanco in white.
The Corralejo Tequila Blanco and Los Arango Tequila Blanco were awarded gold at the World Spirits Award.

Grupo Osborne: Brandy with a symbolic power
Grupo Osborne is a Spanish family enterprise that has a traditional dedication to the production of wine and spirits. The company is based in El Puerto de Santa María. In 1956, the trademark of the company was created: the bull. As a big stand-up display on the roads of Spain, it had such a great effect that it is considered the unofficial national symbol even today. Osborne was founded in Cádiz in 1772 by Thomas Osborne Mann from Exeter, who wanted to sell wine in the region. He purchased various vineyards in El Puerto de Santa María, which were brought together later under one brand: Osborne. The long success story of the internationally renowned company is characterised by products with authenticity and prestige.
The history of Carlos goes back to the year 1889, when a cellarer in the town of Jerez discovered some mysterious barrels with exquisite brandy. Carlos I is distilled from the best white wines, and its highly aromatic heart is produced in the distillery’s own copper stills from the 19th century. The distillate then matures for 40 years in American oak sherry casks in which Amontillados and Olorosos from Jerez were once stored. The dynamic Criadera and Solera system and the great expertise of the master blender create brandies full of character. Carlos I Amontillado matures in centuries-old barrels from the Solera de Amontillado La Honda, founded in 1857. The harmonious combination of complex salty and mineral notes, interwoven with nutty impressions, offers a silky, elegant taste experience.
Carlos I and Carlos I Amontillado won Gold at the World Spirits Award 2025.
