About Rising Brands

From the exclusive brands department to Importer of the Year

Rising Brands is based in Nuremberg and works as a general importer for international spirits brands on the German market. The company is a subsidiary of GES eG. It emerged from the exclusive brands department of the Bremer Spirituosen Contor, which is still involved as a sales and logistics partner today.

In 2026, Rising Brands was named Spirits Importer of the Year at the Meininger's International Spirits Award. Behind this are 17 gold medals and four special awards for products from seven brands in the portfolio. They range from Scotch and Irish whiskey to rum and cognac to tequila and liqueurs.

Building brands over years, not just distributing

Rising Brands sees itself as a long-term partner for brands that want to grow in the German market. The portfolio is put together deliberately, and the cooperation with the producers is close. The brands are developed together with the beverage retail trade, gastronomy, and e-commerce. Through GES eG, there is a network of more than 800 specialist retail partners behind it.

The approach is also evident at trade fairs. For InterWhisky 2025, the team brought four masterclasses with speakers from Finland, Ireland, and Scotland. In addition, there was a new edition of “Timo's ultimate whisky world tour” with Timo Lambrecht, who holds the title Keeper of the Quaich.

Islay smoke, Irish Pot Still, and an aperitivo from blood oranges

The assortment is internationally positioned. From Douglas Laing comes the Big Peat, awarded as Scotch Whisky Blended Malt of the Year in 2026. From Drogheda near Dublin come The Whistler and the Boann Single Pot Still Series, for which Rising Brands has taken over exclusive import since April 2025. These include the rum spirits and liqueurs from Malecon as well as Cognac Frapin, which the house has been importing exclusively since May 2026.

With Solrosa Aperitivo, Rising Brands also carries a private label. The base is a macerate of Sicilian blood oranges from the Catania and Siracusa regions. The peels are peeled by hand after the harvest and set with water and alcohol. Bergamot, lemon, and ginger bring freshness; rhubarb, gentian, and cinchona bark provide depth and a tart bitter note. The aperitivo has 15% vol. and, according to the manufacturer, contains no artificial flavors.

In the glass, fruity blood orange meets herbal notes and a slightly bitter finish. It works classically as a spritz with Prosecco and a dash of soda. With tonic water, ice, and half a slice of blood orange, it becomes a simple long drink.

Rising Brands –
Spirit import with attitude and craftsmanship

Rising Brands was spun off in 2023 as an independent importer from the exclusive brand division of Bremer Spirituosen Contor GmbH and is based in Nuremberg. The company is part of the GES network and works with over 800 specialist retail partners – a structure that allows for short distances between the distillery and the glass.

The focus is on spirits that do not end up on supermarket shelves: artisanally produced gins like Bobby's from the Netherlands, whiskies from Douglas Laing from Scotland, the fruity-bitter Solrosa Aperitivo, or a classic Licellino Limoncello. Every product in the portfolio stands for a concrete origin, a distillery with history, and a style that stands out from the mainstream.

Rising Brands sees itself as a curator, not a mass importer. Collaboration with gastronomy, bars, and restaurants sharpens the view of what really works in the glass – and what does not. What you find here has already passed this filter.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
