The World Gin Award is, according to international experts and leading magazines such as "GQ", the most important gin award in the world.

Countless manufacturers from all over the world submit their gins, which are then evaluated by international top experts in a blind tasting according to strict rules. Smell, taste and finish are evaluated, and other elements are also taken into account. Based on this, a points system is used, and awards in bronze, silver and gold are given when the respective minimum number of points is reached.

And the gin with the highest score in a country not only receives "gold", but is also awarded as "gold country winner". Only this gin is allowed to compete for their country for the title of "Best Gin in the World" at the awards ceremony in London.

In 2023, Wharfedale Gardens was sensationally awarded two awards in the royal category (London Dry Gin) at the legendary Waldorf Hotel in London: gold and gold country winner. This makes Wharfedale Gardens the best London Dry Gin in Austria and Wharfedale Gardens now belongs to the absolute international top class.

The judges' verdict was:

A complex and well-balanced nose with soft aromas of orange and apple alongside more herbaceous notes. The palate is multi-layered with notes of juniper, pine, and citrus before a lingering finish with hints of white pepper. Overall, a beautifully made gin.

Thank you very much, guys!
