THE GIN GUIDE AWARDS 2021 - FINALISTS
Our exceptional panels of industry-leading judges have completed their comprehensive tastings, assessments and feedback, and they have been hugely impressed by the exceptional quality and diversity of the entries this year - an incredible testament to the industry and producers within it from across the globe.
Following the collation and analysis of the judges' scores, the threshold for Finalists has been determined for each tasting category, taking into account average scores, highest and lowest scores, and the number of entries in the category. The margins have been incredibly fine and a notable number of entries have been fractionally close to the threshold and deserve huge credit. Congratulations to Finalists who are listed in alphabetical order below.
Final tastings and verification by The Gin Guide judging panel will now take place to determine the Winners in each of the tasting categories, as well as collating scores to determine the geographical high scorers and announcing the Winners of the Design & Branding category, the Environmental Sustainability category, and the Industry Choice Awards.
