APAC Insider- South East Asia Business Awards 2025 | 9 May25038 VODKA57 is an esteemed producer of ultra-premium craft spirits of extraordinary quality, renowned for its historical heritage, artisanal passion, and sustainable innovation. Its meticulously handcrafted spirits are a celebration of tradition and dedication, delivering a refined and unforgettable drinking experience. The company believes that exceptional spirits begin with the finest ingredients, carefully sourced, and meticulously crafted using techniques passed down through generations. Nowadays consumers of spirits and alcoholic beverages are increasingly parting away from mass-distilled spirits as higher demand is posed on refined tastes and appreciation for authenticity. Handcrafted, sustainable, environmentally responsible, and sophisticated products are becoming the most sought-after qualities. This shift toward craft beverages is fundamentally altering the spirits landscape, with the demand for medium craft distilleries increasing significantly. This trend affects both small and major spirit producers driving more attention to sustainable production, certifiable suppliers and provenance. According to recent reports, consumers are increasingly preferring quality drinks over quantity, as well as more enhanced experiences in the onpremise channels. Premium spirits have become synonymous with craftsmanship and exclusivity, matching a highly demanding drinking culture in recent years. These premiumization features enable craft spirit makers to reach new high-end target consumers. Many producers are attempting to differentiate themselves from competitors with unique flavour characteristics, sophisticated distillation and filtration process, and high-end quality ingredients. Spirit producers are emphasizing on handcrafted and authentic products. New approaches such as the “from the field to the bottle” are now more common, where producers fully manage all manufacturing phases, from harvesting to bottling. Distillers are increasingly recognizing that ingredients selection, as well as original and proprietary grinding, mashing, and fermentation methodologies, have a substantial influence on the creation of distillate with individuality and character. Furthermore, the adoption of more traditional distillation process, in synergy with advanced filtration and refinement, further influence the quality of these finished products. This is how small-batch production does enable craft distillers to experiment with rare ingredients, resulting in unique range of formulations, aromas and taste profiles. Anticipating these shifting into consumer behaviors and market tends, VODKA57 fully embraced the handcrafted philosophy, already at the core of its family legacy. Nestled in the heart of Switzerland, within the pristine UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, its centuries-old distillery embraces the time-honored art of small batch production.
