Nannoni Grappe: Top distillates from Tuscany

Master distiller and owner Priscilla Occhipinti has continually improved the company’s international reputation over the years with the same enthusiasm and sensitivity as her mentor, Gioacchino Nannoni. She has been personally responsible for these top-quality products for almost 25 years, and as one of the few women working in this industry, she is responsible for the entire journey of the product from the vineyard to the bottle.

Gioacchino Nannoni came up with the idea for the first ‘Grappa di Fattoria’ in the 1970s. This ‘farm grappa’ has been certified to indicate that it is distilled using its own fresh pomace from the respective grape producers. Since 2011, the company has been producing its own ranges under the brand name ‘Nannoni Grappe’, which is, however, limited to elite markets due to the very limited availability of top-quality pomace. Only fresh materials are used and processed within 48 hours. Distilling takes place just 60 days a year; gin, whisky and amaro are produced in the remaining months. “It’s an incredible amount of work for two months, day and night, but it’s also sort of a game,” says Priscilla, who is not only proud of the numerous awards (more than 165 international gold medals in ten years), but also the many visitors who come from all over the world.

At the World Spirits Award, there was silver for Gingillo Rosa, Gin Capricorno and Grappa d’Oro Riserva, and bronze for L’Estate and Acquavite Bacco per Venere.

NEST Gin: A little sip of South Tyrol

Two young South Tyroleans – Peter Paul Schweitzer, a drinks retailer from Latsch, and the fine brandy sommelier Matthias Gamper, a hotelier in the Schnals Valley and a gin expert – wanted to revive old recipes to meet contemporary tastes. “We wanted to create a product that is modern and that suits us.” Their knowledge, their experience and their passion for gin provided the best conditions for their first spirits project. They needed barely a year for product development, naming and packaging. They achieved a gin that is both modern and alpine. Nest Gin – the name implies a comfortable home, like a nest.

It was thought out and distilled at the heart of the Alps, developed from paper to the bottle in cooperation with the distilling master Helmut Oberhofer from the Roner Distillery. The essential basis: crystal clear alpine water from South Tyrol and the finest grain. The main protagonist in the complex play of aromas: the finest alpine herbs with a hint of orange. The botanicals involved apart from juniper are coriander, angelica root, masterwort, gentian, yarrow, musk blossom, thyme and marigold. And apart from that nothing: no oils, no essences, no tricks. And what does the gin itself say about it? “They tried to say no, but I was 42% stronger. I was created, a little sip of happiness, made for gintlemen and gintlewomen in the finest nightclub, for ginsters in the trendiest town and for true country folk in the wildest nature.”

At the World Spirits Award, Nest Gin Alpine London Dry received gold.

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.
