Testing Institute of Chicago) - November
Tamborine Mountain Distillery: 2 Silver & 1 Bronze award at the BTI Chicago Spirits Competition
Tamborine Mountain Distillery Ginger Vodka
45% alc/vol 500 ml
Clear with a faint green straw cast. Bright, earthy fresh cut ginger aromas with a glycerous honey sweet medium-to-full body and a vibrant warming violet candy, floral soap, and hot peppery crystallized ginger finish.
International Review of Spirits Award: Silver Medal
Tamborine Mountain Distillery Pertzovka Pepper Vodka
45% alc/vol 500 ml
Clear with a nickel gray cast. Interesting aromas of grilled bananas and hot chili peppers with a supple, sweet medium-to-full body and a long, honey, frosted banana cake, and jalapeno finish. Different and fun.
International Review of Spirits Award: Silver Medal
Tamborine Mountain Distillery Neutral Vodka
40% alc/vol 500 ml
Clear with a nickel cast. Curious aromas of herbal lozenge, lemongrass, grape gelatin, and violet candy with a glycerous medium body and a hot menthol and peppery spice and herb finish. Quite flavor-laden for an unflavored vodka; probably best in Bloody Marys.
International Review of Spirits Award: Bronze Medal
The International Review of Spirits is the largest
and most prestigious annual spirits competition
in the United
States. Throughout the year, the tasting
experts at the Beverage Testing Institute (BTI)
will
invite select members
of the trade to join them as panelists in
blind tastings of specific categories of spirits.
Major and boutique
spirits producers and importers from around
the world and across
the country will participate in the competition
because they know that BTI conducts the most
objective, consistent
and widely regarded spirits reviews in America.
Millions of consumers look to BTI's spirits reviews on
Tastings.com, CNBC and elsewhere when making their spirits
buying decisions. Retailers and distributors across the
U.S. closely watch BTI's reviews when looking for products
to carry. Spirits producers and marketers obtain valuable
marketing tools by participating in BTI's reviews.
