ISC 2025 Results: Double Gold and More for Our Spirits

The ISC 2025 results brought great news for our brands. This year, three of our spirits were recognized at the International Spirits Challenge, one of the most respected competitions in the global beverage industry. These awards not only highlight the craftsmanship behind every bottle, but also reaffirm our commitment to authenticity, quality, and excellence.

What Is the ISC and Why Does It Matter?

The International Spirits Challenge (ISC) celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2025, making it the longest-running dedicated spirits competition in the world. Its legacy is built on trust, independence, and three decades of experience.

Each entry is evaluated through a strict blind tasting process, judged solely on aroma, flavor, and balance by an expert panel of specialists. With thousands of entries from more than 70 countries, winning an ISC award is a major achievement for any spirit.
