Quince is at the heart of the MIKO story, but this time the moment of glory belonged to plum brandy — MIKO plum brandy won a gold medal at the London Spirits Competition, one of the world's most prestigious spirits competitions.
Recognition That Confirms Our Direction
A gold medal from such a respected competition is a powerful boost, but more importantly, it confirms that MIKO is on the right path. Behind the plum brandy stand the same dedication, the same quality and the same idea that guides the entire brand: everything MIKO does should be the pure essence of fruit, without compromise.
The judges described MIKO plum brandy through aromas of white grape, plum and subtle notes of clove, leading to a taste of stewed stone fruit and oak, with a moderate, dry finish marked by plum blossom. This sensory profile confirms what MIKO has aimed for from the beginning — a balance between the traditional character of plum brandy and the refinement that makes it recognizable on the international stage as well.
Bronze for the Quince Brandies Too
Alongside the gold for plum brandy, the London Spirits Competition also brought good news for the other half of the MIKO story — both MIKO quince brandies won bronze medals. Although the gold for plum brandy is the biggest surprise, given that quince remains at the core of MIKO's identity, the bronze medals for the quince brandies confirm that quality is present across the entire range.
What This Means for MIKO
For a brand that has been on the market for only a few months, recognitions like these have come quickly — and not by chance. They are the result of the same philosophy behind every MIKO product: control over the process, carefully selected fruit, and production without added sugar, artificial aromas or flavor enhancers.
