BBerryshka: Juniper specialities from Slovenia
In the 1950s, the Novo Mesto forestry enterprise started to produce essential oils from fir trees. At the start of the 1990s, the Kenda family took over the old distillery and specialised in the manufacturing of essential oils from juniper berries. The renovation of the distillery allowed the widening of the product range. Logical conclusion: when a lot of juniper berries are available, other products can also be realised, especially juniper brandy and gin. With a selector that works with high-speed cameras and compressed air, the berries are selected according to their colour and shape, the cleaner removes impurities such as needles, twigs, insects, dust, etc. and sorts the berries according to size. Then, a mill breaks them down into a fine grain, and in the dryer the humidity level is set for various purposes.
The London Dry Gin was one of the first of its kind in Slovenia and the juniper brandy that is made only from fermented berries matures for three years in oak barrels. Today all the products have organic certification, which additionally ensures the quality of the raw ingredients. Apart from juniper spirits, the product range comprises fruit liqueurs and soon also the first Slovenian whisky. In addition, handmade chocolates are produced, as the family enterprise owns a chocolaterie. It is on account of this that many visitors come to the little town of Obrh to get to know the variety of products.
At the World Spirits Award, gold was awarded to Berryshka Purfl Blue Gin and Berryshka Bio Brinjevec, and silver to Berryshka London Dry Gin, Berryshka Gin'N Berry and Berryshka Staran Brinjevec.

MBG International Premium Brands – Brands with added value
“We Love Liquids.” This slogan has accompanied MBG on its worldwide path of success since it was founded in 1993 under the name P.O.S. Marketing + Vertrieb GmbH: Strong brands have been established around the world in nearly 60 countries, with innovative own brands, renowned retail brands, great ideas and a lot of energy. With over 250 employees, the MBG Group currently generates over € 200 million and, every year, more than a million hectolitres are produced. The portfolio in Germany includes 12 own brands and 6 retail brands (from non-alcoholic drinks to low proof drinks to wines & spirits) for 90,000 customers.
“Our recipe for successful brands is the mixture of passion, conviction and knowledge of the market. If all goes well, names and products become new worlds which consumers love. Success is not always predictable, which means that courage is needed above all. The right moment has to be found and hard work put in, just like with a hit single: some are one hit wonders while others become classics.” Little can be added to this definition from Managing Director Andreas W. Herb. From the MBG Group headquarters in Paderborn, a great deal of expertise makes successful brands, tailored to the respective target group and the market segment. Many brands that are well known on shop shelves and in the gastronomy sector have played a role in the history of the company.
Participation in the World Spirits Award yielded gold for Dos Mas Nasty Nuts Shot.
