CIL US Wines & Spirits Signs Agreement to Import DANZKA Vodka

CIL US Wines & Spirits, the American subsidiary of independent and family-owned Camus Wines & Spirits, announced today it has been selected as the importer and supplier for the return of DANZKA® Vodka to the United States.

We are thrilled to lead the effort to welcome DANZKA Vodka back to the US,” said Jean Denis Voin, Executive Vice- President, CIL US Wines & Spirits.  “It is a great liquid and a brand which never had the kind of aggressive focus and attention that we are prepared to devote.”

DANZKA Vodka was established in Copenhagen, Denmark – some 25 years ago and launched in a stunning aluminum bottle, its sleek contemporary appearance a hallmark of Danish design.  In 2004, the brand was acquired by V&S/ The Absolute Spirits Company and launched in the United States. In 2006, the brand was sold to Belvedere SA. In 2013, DANZKA Vodka was purchased by Waldemar Behn GmbH, a fourth-generation German family-owned spirit business, headquartered in Eckernförde on former Danish territory in the most northern part of the country. Waldemar Behn’s plan is to focus on the unique values of this extraordinary vodka brand with the iconic aluminum bottle standing in the center of the brand-story.

“From the onset of our relationship with the CAMUS team, we have felt a shared respect for tradition and handcrafted quality,” said Rüdiger Behn, Managing Director, Waldemar Behn, GmbH.  “Both of our portfolios have been guided by generations, and we are confident that the CIL US team is ideally suited to help us prove that DANZKA Vodka is more than a cool package.”
