It is with immense pride that we announce news that makes our bubbles of happiness sparkle: our brand new product, the Spritcello, has just won the highest possible distinction – the Grand Gold medal – at the prestigious Frankfurt International Trophy 2025 competition in Germany. With an impressive score of 93/100, this award places our lemon creation among the best international drinks of the moment.
For a young Swiss artisanal company like ours, receiving such an honor in the first year of launching our premix is both a high-level professional recognition... and a real motivation boost for what’s next!
A 100% authentic Swiss collaboration
Behind this success lies much more than a drink: it is a story of passion, rigor, and partnership. The Spritcello is first and foremost a solid base – our Limonceflo family, lovingly produced here in the canton of Vaud. An artisanal limoncello already internationally awarded for its aromatic power, elegance, and low sugar content.
But it is also the meeting with a key player in the Swiss landscape: Distillerie Louis Morand & Cie SA in Martigny. Thanks to the expertise of Arthur Vocat, a talented master distiller, we were able to create this new bold, refreshing, and simply delicious product.
A reinvented Spritz... and lemony!
The Spritcello was designed as a local, natural, and innovative alternative to the famous Italian Spritz. It has 15% alcohol, like Aperol or Campari, but with a signature all our own: an authentic lemon taste, fresh, lively, enhanced with our own organic lemon juice, cold-pasteurized to preserve all the aromas.
And above all, true to our philosophy, Spritcello is less sweet than most premixes on the market. The result? A lighter, more balanced aperitif that highlights the lemon rather than the sugar.
Served well chilled, topped up with a bit of prosecco and a splash of sparkling water, it transports you in a sip to a sunny terrace… somewhere between the Vaud Riviera and the Amalfi Coast.
A validation that warms the heart
Launching a new product is always a little leap into the unknown. We put everything into it: our energy, our convictions, our time (a lot), our sweat (sometimes lemony), and our dreams. So when an independent international jury awards a Grand Gold medal to this product, it’s an immense validation.
This proves that here in French-speaking Switzerland, we can create exceptional artisanal products, competitive on a global scale, while staying true to values of authenticity, naturalness, and pleasure.
The future is sparkling
This award is not an end in itself – it’s a beginning. A great recognition, but also an invitation to introduce Spritcello to as many people as possible. You will soon be able to enjoy it in your favorite delicatessens, your favorite bars, your beloved hotels, and of course, at many upcoming events.
Thanks to everyone who believes in our lemony adventure. And above all, a huge thank you to Florian, our tireless founder, and to Arthur Vocat, our committed partner. This award is the result of your hard work and your love for a well-made product.
Come on, shall we toast? 🍋🥂
To your health, and to the continuation of the Spritcello adventure!
