BELSAZAR DRY & TONIC
A club chair, old leather and conversation layered with meaning – some situations require a drink that everybody can imbibe. Tart, elegant and not at all brash, with subtle notes of mirabelle plum, apricot and even chamomile – Belsazar Dry Tonic is certainly something to sit up and take note of.
50 ml Belsazar Dry
100 ml Tonic Water
BELSAZAR RED & GINGER
In a Red & Ginger, vanilla, candied orange and the velvety aromas of bitter chocolate are offset by the explosive, slightly spicy bite of ginger. The result: a potent highball that lingers in the memory.
50 ml Belsazar Red
100 ml Ginger Ale
10 ml Lime Juice
BELSAZAR ROSÉ & TONIC
Fruity sweet and surprisingly bitter. The rays of the sun in a glass, chilled to perfection. The aroma of fresh berries with a clear, yet subtle underlying hint of bitterness. Refreshing and punchy. Perfect for balmy summer nights that go on forever.
50 ml BELSAZAR ROSÉ
100 ml TONIC WATER
Grapefruit slices
BELSAZAR WHITE & TONIC
Sweet without being cute about it. A White & Tonic wears its heart on its tongue. It infuses the playful taste of dried peaches and oranges with refined herbal and spicy notes to create a full-bodied aperitif.
50 ml BELSAZAR WHITE
100 ml TONIC WATER
GERMANO MEXICANO
If you’re going on a journey, it’s a good idea to take something nice with you. From Mexico, for example. The smoky, indomitable aroma of mezcal gains an unexpected delicacy when filtered through the lens of Belsazar Rosé. Rich in aroma, not in clichés.
50 ml BELSAZAR ROSÉ
25 ml MEZCAL
25 ml LIME JUICE
20 ml AGAVE SYRUP
NEGRONI
Deep red and uncompromising. When it comes to cocktails, a Negroni is a statement: just three ingredients and no time for games. Bitter, aromatic and complex, it more than lives up to its Mediterranean origins.
30 ml Belsazar Red
30 ml Campari
30 ml Gin
PINK MARTINI
A twist on a classic. Bursting with contrast and passion. From grapefruit and raspberries and a soft pink hue to wild juniper berries and a dry, clear finish. Shaken or stirred: for the kick you’re looking for.
50 ml Belsazar Rosé
30 ml Gin
BELSAZAR ESPRESSO MARTINI
The strong, complex aromas of Belsazar Red spar against the strength of a dark Italian espresso. Ripe cherries and bitter orange dance with dark chocolate and embrace the subtle sweetness of agave syrup. This drink opens the door to the night.
60 ml Belsazar Red
40 ml Espresso
10 ml AGAVE SYRUP
THE FOUNDER
WINE ENTHUSIAST MAX FROM SOUTHERN GERMANY AND TASTEMAKER SEBASTIAN FROM BERLIN BRING OPPOSITES INTO PERFFECT BALANCE WITH BELSAZAR. BECAUSE WHEN CONTRASTS SUCH AS THE BERLIN FREE SPIRIT, TRADITIONAL CRAFTMANSHIP AND REGIONAL WINES MEET, SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL IS CREATED - IN THIS CASE AN APERITIF THAT STANDS OUT DUE TO ITS UNIQUENESS.

Celebrating Differences
REGIONAL WINES AND HOMEMADE FRUIT BRANDIES, BITTER AND SWEET IN TASTE, WHERE FAMILY TRADITION MEETS MODERN LIFESTYLE. BELSAZAR LIVES, EMPHASIZES AND COMBINES THESE OPPOSITES - BELSAZAR IS A WINE AND VERMOUTH MADE IN GERMANY.
VERMOUTH PRODUCTION THE BASIS
GREAT WINES ARE THE BASIS FOR OUR VERMOUTH. WE ONLY USE CAREFULLY SELECTED, REGIONAL WINES FROM TRUSTED PARTNERS THAT HAVE THE SAME ASPIRATION WHEN IT COMES TO QUALITY AND PASSION FOR THIS PRODUCT AS WE HAVE.
THE NUANCES
MACERATES ARE WHAT GIVE BELSAZAR ITS COMPLEX FLAVOUR. THE EXTRACTS FROM HERBS, SPICES, BLOSSOM AND HUSKS ARE AS VARIED AS BERLIN'S NEIGHBOURHOODS. THE MACERATES MATURE IN LARGE CARBOYS.
THE RIGHT BRANDY
BELSAZAR'S FINISHING TOUCH COMES FROM A DASH OF FRUIT BRANDY. THE SCHLADERER DISTILLERY HAS BEEN PRODUCING FRUIT BRANDIES USING ONLY NATURAL INGREDIENTS SINCE 1844.
THE MUST-HAVE
THE SUBTLE SWEETNESS OF BELSAZAR COMES FROM ADDING BLACK FOREST GRAPE MUST. TO STOP THE MUST FROM FERMENTING, IT IS REFINED WITH BRANDY THAT HAS BEEN LEFT TO MATURE IN OAK CASKS. THIS IS WHERE THE SLIGHT HINT OF SHERRY COMES FROM.
THE UNION
ALL INGREDIENTS ARE MIXED TOGETHER DURING THE FILTRATION STAGE. THE WINE. FRUIT BRANDIES AND MUST BECOME ONE. THIS IS WHEN THE VERMOUTH STARTS TO TAKE SHAPE - AND ALL IT TAKES IS A DELICATE COMBINATION OF SKILL, TIME AND TEMPERATURE.
AGEING IN STONE CASKS
THE AGEING PROCESS CAN TAKE UP TO THREE MONTHS. OUR VERMOUTH IS STORED IN NEUTRAL CASKS TO ALLOW THE LIQUID TO DEVELOP ITS RANGE OF COMPLEX AROMAS. THE INGREDIENTS ARE LEFT TO FUSE WITH ONE ANOTHER, UNINHIBITED BY AROMAS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE ARISE IF THE VERMOUTH WAS STORED IN A WOOD CASK. THIS IS WHAT GIVES BELSAZAR ITS REFRESHING TASTE, COMPLEXITY AND BALANCE.
