Luis Gin Eight ITALY GIN OF THE YEAR 2022!

Luis Eight Gin scored a 93 pt (silver winner) and was named Italy Gin of the Year at the 2022 NY International Spirits Competition.

This competition differentiates itself by having a trade-only judging panel, with no amateur participants. Retail store buyers, on-premise beverage directors, distributors and importers serve as the judges; the organizers contend that it is the trade that truly knows what consumers want since they receive daily feedback from consumers.

The New York International Spirits Competition was first run in 2010. It has spawned sibling wine, beer and cider competitions in the city, and various events around the globe, such as the Berlin International Spirits Competition. Together these form part of the International Beverage Competition Series. Award levels are Double Gold (based on unanimous acclaim from all judges on a particular panel), Gold, Silver and Bronze. Double Gold winners are then re-tasted for best in category awards.
