The  Kalvelage,  national distillery, has just been awarded three times in the edition of 2021. In the category Vodka, the 

Kalvelage Vibe  received the gold medal. In the Gin category, the gold also shone, but this time with the  Kalvelage London Dry Gin . To close the podium, Kalvelage OAK vodka   received a silver medal in the flavored vodka category.

With this, the distillery has  20 medals in international competitions  in its trajectory, a great achievement for a brand that was born in 2012. In addition, it was the first time that Kalvelage received two gold medals in the same competition, winning a new one personal record for the brand.

For the brothers  Marcos  and  Mauricio Kalvelage,  these new awards reinforce even more the quality so desired in their spirits, in addition to strengthening the quality of Brazilian products. “ We were very proud of our result in this edition. It is very gratifying to help represent Brazil on the international premium spirits scene ”
