THE WILD ALPS - Quality that is awarded
Our distillates are more than just products - they are the result of a passionate dedication to flavour and quality. From intensely juniper-flavoured dry gin to Caribbean rum, matured in barriques and completely additive-free, to traditional single malt whisky - we create varieties that we ourselves like best, often outside the mainstream.
But the opinions of connoisseurs and experts also count for us, especially in blind tastings. Since our first bottling, their ratings have confirmed year after year that our spirits are among the best in their category.
These awards motivate us to continue to give our best.

2020 Swiss Rum Award - SILVER AWARD
2023 Swiss Spirits Review - Silver Award (88/100)
Tasting notes:
Fruity, apples, baked apple, toffee, very intense and lots of wood. High typicity, cocoa, coffee and lots of vanilla. The intensity remains on the palate and the wood harmonises with the fruit flavours. The lack of sweetness gives the palate the opportunity to savour very precise notes of cocoa, coffee, vanilla, some leather and nuts. An honest rum that promises drinking pleasure.
MAUND
Whisky Single Malt 2014
2023 Swiss Spirits Review - GOLD
2021 Swiss Spirits Review - SILVER
2023 Swiss Spirits Review - Gold Award (90/100)
Tasting notes:
Amber in colour, medium nose (honey, vanilla). Initial sweetness and some interesting (almost menthol?) flavours emerge on the palate. Medium finish, very interesting. Slightly smoky nose with honey and bright red fruits on the nose, joined by honey on the palate, with more red berries and slightly sweet flavours. Long finish with balanced complexity and sweetness that comes through in waves.

Whisky „Founders Reserve"
2021 Swiss Spirits Review - Silver Award
