Once sung about and coveted by seafarers, these days rum has become popular again. It’s no surprise really, as the aroma of tropical fruits and the passion of the Caribbean really get you in the rhythm.
It was the year 1857 when some gentlemen looking for adventure founded an Alpinist club in London. Driven by a spirit of discovery, their goal was to climb the last unscaled peaks of the Alps. Stories like this have inspired us to preserve the indescribable feeling of standing at the summit.
Normal water is not good enough for our premium spirits. We use Swiss glacial water, which has its source at an altitude of over 3’160 meters on the Jungfraujoch!
The Aletsch glacier is the biggest and longest glacier in the Alps. Between the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, it has its own ice tunnels on the Jungfraujoch. These are the source of the glacial water, which is used to reduce the distillate to bottling strength. The natural glacial water gives our spirits a particularly soft and pleasant flavour.
THE GOLDEN AGE OF ALPINISM
It was the year 1857 when some gentlemen from London with a craving for adventure founded the first mountaineering club, the ‘Alpine Club’, which has continued to exist to this day. One of the club’s founders and presidents was Sir Leslie Stephen. Midway through the 19th century he was not only the first person to scale some of the most challenging peaks in the Swiss Alps but he also wrote the successful book ‘The playground of Europe’ in which he shared his experiences in the Alps with the public at large.It was an age marked by determination and courageous decisions. It was the age of the alpinists. Stories like these inspired us to embark on our own adventure. In this way, the pioneering spirit of those far off days lives on, more than 160 years later, in our Alpinist Premium Spirits.
