Sbor žabích mužů – dánské speciální jednotky

Když elitní vojáci Sboru žabích mužů nasazují své životy při ochraně Dánska a jeho námořnictva například před piráty, děje se tak často v naprostém utajení. Ne všichni se bohužel z misí vrátí živí a zdraví.

Nadace „Conventus Ranae“, což v překladu znamená „shromáždění žab“, je veteránskou organizací, která spojuje současné i bývalé členy jednotky. Jejím cílem je pomoci bývalým elitním vojákům při návratu do civilního života, zejména tam, kde veřejná podpora nestačí.

Ve spolupráci s příslušníky jednotky uvedla značka Old St. Croix v roce 2015 na trh exkluzivní směs „Royal Danish Navy Frogman“. Část zisku z jejího prodeje směřuje na podporu nadace „Conventus Ranae“.

Do konce roku 2024 jsme společně vybrali více než 1 350 000 dánských korun.

Dar ve výši 207 650 dánských korun

V Old St. Croix chováme hluboký respekt k těm, kteří chrání naši společnost na souši i na moři.

„Jsme rádi, že můžeme sdružení žabích mužů Conventus Ranae předat tento dar. Tato organizace pomáhá bývalým elitním vojákům při přechodu do civilního života. Příspěvek pochází z prodeje Old St. Croix Navy Frogman. Upřímně děkujeme všem příznivcům značky, kteří svým nákupem tuto podporu umožnili,“ říká Michael Bielefeldt.

Příběh A.H. Riiseho

V červnu roku 1838 udělil dánský stát Albertu Heinrichu Riisemu výhradní koncesi k provozování lékárny na ostrově Sv. Tomáše v Karibiku. Získal tak nejen právo lékárnické praxe, ale i monopol na výrobu alkoholu ve své lékárně.

Zpočátku Albert vyráběl rum a bylinné likéry jako prostředek proti žaludečním potížím. Jeho rum si však brzy získal oblibu i pro jiné než léčebné účely. V roce 1893 získala společnost The A.H. Riise Company svou první mezinárodní zlatou medaili na Světové výstavě v Chicagu. Riise postupně vytvořil a zdokonalil značky jako Old St. Croix Brand, Riise’s Guava Rum, A.H. Riise Rum a mnoho dalších.

Později byl Riise na ostrově Sv. Tomáše oceněn mnoha čestnými tituly. Působil také jako ředitel národní banky a v roce 1860 byl jmenován rytířem Řádu Dannebrog.

Old St. Croix – Timeline

With the return to the name Old St. Croix, we take one step back – to take two steps forward. The name revives the original vision that inspired Albert Heinrich Riise, who, more than 150 years ago, brought Danish West Indian rum to the world.

EU legislation affects the spirits industry

If you have an old bottle of Old St. Croix (or formerly A.H. Riise) in your hand and compare it with a more recent bottle, you might wonder why what used to say ‘Rum’ is now ‘Superior Spirit Drink’. What’s the difference? And does it matter to you?
