Diageo – From London to the whole world

Approximately 33,000 employees are employed worldwide at Diageo, the market leader in premium spirits, with Smirnoff (vodka), Johnnie Walker (whiskey), J&B (Scotch whiskey), Baileys (liqueur), Captain Morgan (rum), Cuervo (tequila) and Tanqueray (gin), Guinness beer and branded wines. Production takes place all around the world: from Great Britain and Ireland, Italy, Spain and Africa, to the USA, Canada, Latin America, Australia, India and the Caribbean. The global corporation emerged in 1997 from the merger between Guinness and GrandMet. 180 markets around the world are handled from its London headquarters.

A lot of work and lots of attention to detail go into creating the in-depth product descriptions on Diageo’s website. Information and analysis is provided about issues ranging from detailed descriptions of the production down to the most minute ingredients. Finally, they are aware of the size of their company and also of their responsibilities as a supplier of alcoholic products. The name Diageo was also deliberately chosen – it represents their agenda. Put together from ‘dia’ (the Latin word for ‘day’) and ‘geo’ (the Greek word for ‘world’), it means that every day people are celebrating all over the world with products from their company. These products open up possibilities never dreamed of for special days and nights, marking special life events and even making the smaller things in life feel magical.

Participation in the World Spirits Award was magical: there was double gold for Tanqueray No. 10 (Spirit of the Year 2016), gold for Gordon’s London Dry Gin and Tanqueray London Dry Gin, as well as silver for Tanqueray Rangpur.

Burgunderhof – A high-flying young entrepreneur

When Julica Renn gets in her helicopter and flies over the vineyards, it is clear that the former wine princess is no cliché. Together with her parents she runs the Burgunderhof, the first certified climate-neutral and ecologically run winery and hotel on Lake Constance. Since 2016, she has been the managing director and equal partner of the winery, the distillery and the hotel, and with her unusual start-up she has ushered in the generation change to the Burgunderhof with a flourish: MILE HIGH 69® is the name of the protected brand of her exclusive gin label. The laborious batch production is worth it, the end result is a very small edition of a great product – stylishly presented in aluminium containers with lots of 1920s flair: a homage to the pioneer times of the famous Dornier flying boats, which conquered the world from Lake Constance.

These days, Julica Renn conquers the gin world and benefits from over 300 years of family tradition. The standards are high – father Heiner Renn is known for fine fruit brandies and wines. His daughter has inherited his sense of business and fine sense of taste. In the secret recipe of her gin composition you will find juniper, sweet almond, lemon balm and elderflower, as well as kumquats, pine buds, lime and inflorescence from Müller-Thurgau. In the unfiltered distillation, the ethereal components are optimally released and the aromas elegantly highlighted – 19 natural botanicals and pure Lake Constance water promise a pleasurable experience, which Julica Renn presents impeccably: online, on Facebook and in the web shop.

At the World Spirits Award, the gin flew straight to gold.

KWV Brandy continued its great legacy in 2023

The roots of locally produced brandy on South African shores can be traced back to 1672. KWV Brandy has developed into a well-known name that has symbolised stability, quality and values for generations. With meticulous double distillation in copper stills and maturation in pristine French oak barrels, they always strive for perfection. The fascinating selection of brandies is a sensory journey of discovery that begins with the three-year-old KWV and continues with the nuances of KWV 5, 10, 12, 15, and crowned by the exquisite KWV 20.

Brandy, liquid history in a glass, tells of tradition, craftsmanship and enjoyable times. KWV Brandy stands for a century of consistent commitment by pioneering thinkers, visionary producers and entrepreneurial leaders, as well as for its remarkable versatility as a leading, multi-award-winning company. Since the first international award in 1981, its position in the brandy arena has been reconfirmed time and again. In 2022, KWV Brandy was honoured as the best brandy producer in the world at the prestigious International Spirits Challenge (ISC) under the leadership of renowned Master Distiller Pieter de Bod. KWV is synonymous with brandy in South Africa. With unwavering support from the wider KWV family, they eagerly look forward to another century of excellence.

The Master Class Distillery 2024 received gold for KWV 20, KWV 15, KWV 10, KWV 5, KWV 3, Imagin Classic, Imagin Citrus and Wild Africa Cream, silver for KWV 12 and KWV VS, and bronze for Cruxland Black Winter Truffle and Cruxland Kalahari Truffle.
