Our Single Malt Tawny Cask Matured wins 3 Stars and a green ring at SOCraft Awards

Tawny Whisky

Tawny Whisky

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been honoured with a prestigious Spirit of Craft Awards award!

SOCraft is an independent awards body that spotlights those pushing the frontiers of the global craft spirits industry. It is also the first awards body that includes ‘sustainability footprint’ as a core judging criterion. We’re passionate about sustainability, and to have our efforts acknowledged in this way means the world to us.

But wait, there’s more! We didn’t just win one star, but three stars. And, ours was one of only two spirits to be awarded 3 stars. It’s a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team, as well as the support from our amazing community.

Our Tawny received praise for its ‘long, warming finish that’s like a friendly bear hug’, described as ‘robust’ with ‘body, depth, and a good finish’, and noted as ‘an accessible everyday whisky that sips nicely neat’. A big thank you to the judges for their time and feedback.

We’re delighted to receive this award in Spirit Of Craft’s inaugural year, especially among such respected company from around the world, including spirit makers from Cambodia, Canada, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, New Zealand, Scotland, Singapore, Thailand, USA, and Vietnam.
