General Information

JUDGING CRITERIA FOR TASTING
Awards will be made on a merit basis. The judges will not grant an award when, in their opinion, an entry is not worthy of an award.

Each entry will, within reason and at the discretion of the Director of Judging and Managing Director, be evaluated within a peer group of similar spirits. However, the Directors reserve the right to arrange categories as they see fit in light of the number of entries.

JUDGING CRITERIA FOR DESIGN
Awards will be made on a merit basis. The judges will not grant an award when, in their opinion, an entry is not worthy of an award.

Entries will be evaluated on the basis of creativity, impact, and execution. Judges will consider not only each designer’s aesthetic choices but the effectiveness and appropriateness of the design within the context of the product and the brand.
