WE ARE PASSIONATE<\/h1>\n\n

ABOUT GREAT SPIRITS<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

We are in the background of a wonderful memory,
a shared experience
in the pleasures of the table,
embellishing your moments
with friends through the taste and the story <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

\n

SJ\u00d8\u00d8RN SPIRITS is more than just a beverage distributor<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
\n
\n

Founded in 2021<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Sj\u00f8\u00f8rn Spirits came to life in 2021, born of two brothers, S\u00f8en and Bj\u00f8rn with a common drive to discover unique beverages and share them with you. \u201cSjoorn\u201d is an amalgamation of our names, a word which in Swedish means the sea eagle, that majestic bird associated with great vision and regality.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

Our driving force<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

We want people to be joyful. There should be laughter and happy chatter at their table. We want them to spend evenings with friends, create wonderful memories, share a meal, a moment, a story, a smile, a taste at their dinner table. And we want them to do it from the healthy and enduring planet that our partners strive to work in harmony with.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\n

Our Purpose<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

We search out wines and spirits that taste delicious, are not easily found, and are crafted slowly with care by hand.  We find producers that care about their craft and create special beverages that have their own story to tell. We especially partner with people who look for ways to make things that are slow and careful.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t

S\u00f8ren Habisch<\/p>\n\n

Chief Executive Officer<\/p>\n\n

S\u00f8ren has had a diverse and interesting professional history, always focused on people. Having completed an apprenticeship as a paramedic, he went on to study Industrial Engineering at Bachelor level. He has since worked predominantly in sales, leading teams focused on customer acquisition, strategy, new market analysis and customer management, also completing an MBA in between.  S\u00f8ren is thrilled to be heading a small company with a big heart, leading such a passionate group of people.  <\/p>\n\n

S\u00f8ren loves a glass of full-bodied red wine, ideally our Benincasa La Fornace, along with some strong aged cheese. <\/p>\n\n

Bj\u00f8rn Habisch<\/p>\n\n

The the one with the Smarts<\/p>\n\n

Bj\u00f8rn keeps it real here at Sj\u00f8\u00f8rn Spirits. His extensive experience in the world of finance means that while we\u2019re all talking about tannins and notes of red berries, Bj\u00f8rn is ensuring the hard stuff is under control. With an apprenticeship in insurance sales completed, he also studied economics and financial engineering. He has worked in finance, private banking, wealth management, stock exchange trading and international finance but he is also good at selling you a bottle of wine.  <\/p>\n\n

As his work requires so much concentration, Bjorn\u2019s favourite drink has to be coffee. <\/p>\n\n

Sandra Br\u00fcning<\/p>\n\n

The Postage Queen<\/p>\n\n

Therefore we\u2019d be lost without our wonderfully organised and structured colleague working in Logistics and Customs, the lovely Sandra. <\/p>\n\n

Sandra completed her apprenticeship in office administration and began to specialise in shipping. By chance she began helping in customs and decided to stick with it, because the never ending new challenges and constant opportunities to learn something different kept her engaged and enthusiastic. We love having Sandra\u2019s careful and experienced hand on all of our shipping needs, because we know we can trust that our beautiful wines & spirits will find their way safely to you.<\/p>\n\n

Sandra is clearly the sweetest amongst us, with her favourite thing to drink being chocolate and milk. <\/p>\n\n

“After a lifetime of having the privilege of tasting some of the finest whiskies ever bottled, I thought I had seen and tasted it all – how wrong I was. The “Ondjaba” whiskey series is a remarkable expression of what is possible when you think completely outside the box. The Ondjaba is an amazing achievement and an incredible whisky.”<\/p>\n\n
