Jozsef Stevlik’s 100% Fruit-Based Spirits Inspire Cocktail Lovers at Bar Convent Brooklyn 2025

Enjoy authentic plum and apple spirits crafted sustainably in the Carpathian “Amazon of Europe” and join a movement for taste and environmental preservation.

VIENNA, AUSTRIA / BROOKLYN, NY – August 22, 2025 — Premium spirit lovers looking for authentic, sustainable, and unique flavors can now discover the Jozsef Stevlik brand by Eshel GmbH Austria, proudly introduced to the U.S. market at Bar Convent Brooklyn 2025 USA. Presented under the Go International WKO program by Advantage Austria New York, these fruit-based spirits come from the heart of the Carpathian Region, famously called the “Amazon of Europe” known for its Danube River, lush forests and vital biodiversity.

Founder and Managing Director Dusan Stevlik draws inspiration from the Carpathian Mountains—known as the “Little Andes of Central and Eastern Europe”—and an ancient tradition of plum and apple cultivation dating back to Roman times. His brand’s flagship products, Single Plum Spirit and Single Apple Spirit, each available in Oaked and Unoaked versions, have won 24 silver medals at top competitions including the London Spirits Competition, USA Spirits Ratings, and the Bartender Spirits Awards—all judged by leading bartenders from the UK and USA. 

“Jozsef Stevlik is more than just a spirit,” explains Dusan Stevlik, Founder of the brand and Managing Director of Eshel GmbH Austria. “It is a celebration of Carpathian heritage, crafted sustainably to honor both nature and culture.” 

What makes Jozsef Stevlik stand out is its High Kosher certification, which guarantees purity and broadens its appeal to consumers seeking trusted quality and inclusivity. The spirits are crafted honestly with no added sugar and no artificial aromas, only authentic fruit flavors that shine in cocktails or neat.

Beyond taste, every purchase supports a vital cause: the planting of fruit trees in the Carpathian region. This initiative helps preserve fertile land and the local ecosystem, fostering a sustainable future for one of Europe’s most important natural areas. 

“Enjoying a cocktail made with Jozsef Stevlik means you are contributing to the preservation of the Carpathian ‘Amazon of Europe’,” says Dusan Stevlik. “It’s a unique chance for consumers to enjoy super-premium spirits that also support environmental regeneration.” 

The brand introduces a new paradigm for cocktail lovers—a fusion of rich tradition, top-tier quality, and ecological awareness. Its distinct flavor profiles inspire bartenders and home enthusiasts alike to experiment with fresh, authentic fruit-based cocktails. 

As consumers increasingly seek brands with a story and a purpose, Jozsef Stevlik offers a compelling choice that aligns premium taste with social responsibility. 

For spirit lovers eager to explore new flavors that make a positive impact, Jozsef Stevlik is the perfect companion—inviting everyone to taste, celebrate, and protect the Carpathian region, the “Amazon of Europe.”

“The Jozsef Stevlik brand draws from the legacy of Dusan Stevlik’s grandfather, a legendary bootlegger of the Orient Express, whose love of fruit traditions continues as a flavorful journey for every enthusiast to enjoy”.
