The Whitetop stopper has received acclaim for its use by numerous brands, including Germany’s Windspiel Gin, while Amorim Top Series identifies further opportunities in the Tequila, vodka and gin markets – where it says cork stoppers have become an important sign of premiumisation.

In the wake of soaring demand for its stoppers, Amorim Top Series is undertaking a multi-­million-­euro refurbishment of its premises in Argoncilhe, near Porto, in Portugal. Work will include the building of an expanded new production area, new technology equipment and new optical-scanning quality controls.
