The big classic spirits categories become more international every year as the art and skill of distilling reaches all parts of the world. The London Spirits Competition has become a great test bed to see which distillers, producers and brand owners are making the best spirits in their country. Here we shine the light on the highest scoring spirit in each main spirit producing country.
To be a high scorer in the London Spirits Competition you will have had to show the judges – who are all professional bartenders and consultants with direct buying responsibility – that your brand tastes good, is of the highest quality, offers excellent value for money and looks great on a back bar. Here is a link to all the winners in the 2021 competition.
