Prevelon: Premium vodka by order of the Kremlin
Kremlin Premium Vodka was created as the official drink for all diplomatic receptions and banquets at the Kremlin and was intended as the hallmark of high-ranking events. The decision in favour of the most traditional Russian drink was unanimous. It was only produced on special order and in limited amounts. The first large batch of this ‘protocol’ vodka was ordered in February 1945 for the Yalta Conference. Kremlin Award Grand Premium came on the market in 2011 and is exported to 38 countries, and in many of them it holds the top position in the ultra-premium vodka category. Since 2016, the product range has included Kremlin Award Classic, which enjoys great popularity amongst all partners.
Two products have been added to the product range. Kremlin Award Organic is based on alcohol that is produced from the highest quality organic wheat, and on natural drinking water. The vodka passes through a multi-stage purification through pure birchwood charcoal. The alcohol for Kremlin Award Vintage is made from organic grains from the same harvest. The wheat grains are stored in a grain silo until they reach their physiological maturity in order to get a high-quality base product. The ‘luxury alcohol’ is then mixed with natural drinking water and, after purification, is granted a resting period. Production is limited to the year stated on the label.
At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Kremlin Award Organic and Kremlin Award Vintage.

Carpenè Malvolti – Sparkling wine specialist with a sideline in distillates
In 1868, Antonio Carpenè laid the foundations for the internationally successful company it is today. The champagne enthusiast was convinced that he would be able to produce a similar cult beverage with the local Glera grape, harvested from the wine hills around Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. That this has been accomplished for almost 145 years is confirmed by the huge popularity of the sparkling wines and the high export percentage of 56%. Although 5% of production is of distillates in the form of brandy and grappa, they only form a small segment of the business next to the 95% made up of sparkling products. However, they are just as successful due to the long experience in the distillation industry since 1868.
In 1972, Etile Carpenè joined the company and became the fourth generation to take over its management. He has always had the same passion for the mixture of tradition and progress, as well as being the great innovative impulse behind the continuous success of the company. The company’s headquarters are located in the famous wine town of Conegliano in Veneto, about 40 kilometres to the north of Venice. A second winery is in Follina in the middle of the Valdobbiadene region. Here, besides the well-known DOCG Prosecco Superiore, distillates are also manufactured, and they are only released onto the market after a long maturing period in oak barrels.
At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Brandy 15 anni, and silver for Grappa di Prosecco.

Fürst von Wrede: Exquisite craftsmanship for all the senses
The story begins on 24th May 1815, as Field Marshal Carl Philipp Fürst von Wrede (1767–1838) received Ellingen Castle, a Teutonic Order castle, from King Max I. Joseph as a royal throne and male fief – today still the seat of the princely house. Out of respect and veneration for the brave field marshal, every firstborn son is given the first name Carl.
The umbrella brand FÜRST CARL combines a variety of businesses, which together act as advocates for the region, tradition, innovation, quality and sustainability. This includes the castle brewery, the brewery restaurant, the brewery shop, the summer toboggan run, the princely farm, management of the princely real estate and the princely forests. The business is currently run by the sixth and seventh generations of the family.
In late summer of 2018 rowanberries of the highest quality from the surroundings of Ellingen were selected for a remarkable speciality – the Franconian rowanberry spirit. The delicate fruits were harvested and their stalks removed by hand. The trick is to harvest the berries at exactly the right time and to carefully process them. Then the spirit is stored for months in cellars until maturity when its wonderful fruity aroma unfolds.
At the World Spirits Award, there was gold for Rowanberry, and silver for Fränkisches Kirschwasser (Franconian Kirsch).
