Interview: FS
Magic happens when two truly enthusiastic individuals turn their passions into work. That (in short) is the story of Xedequa team, originally from Friuli Venezia-Giulia, the brand aims to celebrate the beauties of our region through various beverages, mixing traditional botanicals in the high quality handcrafted drinks. Their zealousness, the artistic appeal of their bottles made us want to discover more.
We have to say, your bottles are truly works of art. What does ‘Xedequa’ mean?
We came up with “Xedequa” as we were trying to find something that would define our brand. It means “equa presenza” or “balanced presence” or “equal presence”. This word describes our business perfectly as we always try to balance the high quality ingredients from our land of FVG to bring out the flavors and scents – all this makes your drink unforgettable.
Also the logo is amazing, what does it represent?
Our logo, which represents a female figure panted in free-style recalls the artisanality of our products, while the pattern of our labels is a flower composition in a natural environment, which gives that added modern twist to our bottles.
Brilliant. How did it all begin?
Xedequa is a family affair. As it often happens, our business started in our home and then grew and got bigger and bigger. Our story is simple and genuine: after getting our expertise in making infusion products, loved by our friends and family, driven by youthful enthusiasm, we decided to get specialized in producing more articulated and complex liquors and spirits. After thorough studies, analysis and tests, aiming to share with the world our passion for good taste, and in particular for the delicacies of our territory.
Love it. And lastly, where can we get these magnificent bottles?
Up to you. I mean, nowadays we are proudly available online at our brand-owned ecommerce www.xedequa.com as well on many top class lounge bar all over the City, Region and more, and on may shops like Salsamenteria Palato, via delle Mura 2, Trieste.
