Suburbia Spirits: Gin as a common denominator

Tobias Fadinger and David Pointner grew up in a little suburb of Salzburg and have been friends since childhood. They have also spent many sociable evenings together where Tobias’ father, who has been in the spirits business for over 30 years, often contributed his delicious cocktail creations. This was of course a source of inspiration, and the goal was ‘to go out among the distillers and create exceptional spirits’. A lot of time and dedication flowed into the manufacturing of the drinks, bearing the name Suburbia Spirits. This stands for more than just the production of spirits, it also stands for passion and a zest for life.

The unusual chocolate liqueur is based on lemongrass gin. A bitter chocolate mash and harmonious ingredients give it a finely tangy yet sweet touch. This aromatic combination also makes the liqueur less thick than conventional liqueurs and pleasantly light on the palate. “We like to drink our gin liqueur as a shot and on the rocks, but it is also quite fitting as part of creative cocktails.”

The handcrafted lemongrass gin is not dominated by juniper, as the revitalising lemongrass gives it very fresh aromas. Blossom and citrus fruit are complemented by a hint of vanilla for a rounded aftertaste. This mix not only delights gin lovers but also gets gin newcomers into the taste. “We prefer to drink our gin on the rocks on a balmy summer evening in good company.”

At the World Spirits Award, gold was awarded to Gin mit Lemongrass (lemongrass gin), and bronze to Gin-Likör Schokolade (chocolate gin liqueur).

Roner: Most awarded distillery in Italy

In the year 1946, Gottfried Roner laid the foundation stone for the family enterprise that has been dedicated to the art of distilling for three generations. The distillery based in Tramin on the wine route is South Tyrol’s top address when it comes to fruit distillates, grappa, liqueurs, gin and more in the highest quality, as well as being the most awarded distillery in Italy. The extensive range includes over 80 products. First-class fruits and marc from South Tyrol and the environs serve as a basis. With a fine touch, commitment and ambition to achieve the best at all times, they bring together the aroma and taste of the raw ingredients expressively in the bottle.

A milestone in the company history was the inauguration of the innovative vacuum pot still ‘Luisa’ in 2018, named after the wife of the company founder. This pot still unique throughout Italy is a homage to the art of distilling and a glimpse into the future. Visitors can appreciate its beauty on a guided tour and sample a pear brandy made according to traditional procedures. The brandy filled into a copper-coloured bottle delights connoisseurs and enthusiasts with its gentle and refined taste, reflecting traditions and modernity.

Classified as World Class Distillery 2026, they received Gold for Waldhimbeere Raritas (wild raspberry), Caldiff 80 Special Edition and Muskatella Raritas, Silver for Wilhelmine Gran Cru, Quitte Raritas (quince) and Marille Raritas (apricot) at the World Spirits Award.

In April 2023, Norden Sea Salt Gin was launched on the German market under the Doornkaat brand. It is a speciality on the gin shelf, as selected North Sea botanicals create an extraordinary and intense taste experience: juniper provides the spice, sea buckthorn and rosehip the fruity tartness. Norden Sea Salt Gin is rounded off with a pinch of sea salt. This spirit spreads the genuine nature and authenticity of the North Sea coast throughout Germany. It is versatile and can be enjoyed neat, on ice or mixed as a long drink or cocktail.

Tres Países Premium Rum combines distillates from Guatemala, Panama and the Dominican Republic. After being stored for up to eight years in American white oak bourbon casks, they come to Europe for refinement by the master blender. The characteristics of the countries provide the taste profile: vanilla and butterscotch, elegant fruit, banana and chocolate. It is also available in a port cask finish, which is refined in aged casks for another six months.

At the World Spirits Award 2026, there was Gold for Tres Países Premium Rum and Silver for Doornkaat Norden Sea Salt Gin.
