Kanonkop
Established - 1973
The name Kanonkop is derived from a hillock (kop) on the Simonsberg mountain above the wine estate from where, during the 17th and 18th centuries, a cannon (kanon) was fired to announce the arrival of sailing ships entering Table Bay. The roar of the cannon would be the signal to local farmers, who were waiting to make the 50-kilometer journey to the harbour, to load up their wagons with fresh fruit and vegetables to barter their produce.

Jagermeister
Established - 1942
Each bottle of Jägermeister is produced from the original recipe first invented by Curt Mast over 80 years ago. 56 botanicals (including herbs, blossoms, roots and fruits) are collected to create this elixir composed of five head notes: bitter, sweet, citrusy, herbal and spicy. The unique Jägermeister base is stored in oak barrels for a minimum of nine months before dosage and filtration can begin. The finished product in the iconic green bottle is the result of a process that takes over 365 days – from the collection of the herbs to enjoying the perfect ice-cold shot with a group of friends.

Bombay Sapphire
Established - 1942
Bombay Sapphire are passionate about producing the finest gin possible, which is why the creation of Bombay Sapphire is truly unique. Whilst ordinary gins boil their botanicals directly in the spirit to achieve their flavour, the taste of Bombay Sapphire is created through the Vapour Infusion process.
Bacardi
As rum is made, flavour notes may develop that are dominant and unwanted. So Don Facundo Bacardí Massó created a filtration process with a secret mix of charcoals made from tropical woods and coconut shells. These natural filters removed only the rogue notes allowing a whole new world of subtler, more elegant flavours to shine through. This secret combination of charcoals is still used today and known only to the Maestros de Ron Bacardí.

William Lawson's
William Lawson never cared much about what Scotch was ‘supposed’ to be like. It was always about the flavour. We put it with malts and grain whiskies that hold their own (we don’t do dainty) and steer clear of smoky malts that would cloud the fruit. It means the flavours stay big and bold. Great Scotch. No rules.
