Here is a collection of industry awards we have picked up since the release of our first single malt in 2020.
The Online Scotch Whisky Awards
The Online Scotch Whisky Awards (OSWAs) are annual accolades established to honour exceptional whiskies and their producers, reflecting the preferences of the global whisky community. Initiated in 2021, the OSWAs aim to celebrate whiskies that enthusiasts worldwide are currently enjoying.
Nominations for the awards are a collaborative effort involving over 80 independent contributors, including online reviewers, creators, and commentators within the whisky field. These individuals, with the support of the broader whisky community, curate nominations across various categories. The final selections are then presented for a public vote, ensuring that the awards resonate with the collective voice of whisky lovers.
The OSWAs maintain a fully independent model; there are no entry fees, and brands cannot pay to participate. This approach ensures that the awards genuinely reflect the community's appreciation for quality, value, and accessibility in whisky.
In 2024, the OSWAs introduced the "Trifecta Award" to recognise brands or products that have won a category for three consecutive years. Upon achieving this, the recipient is honoured with the Trifecta Award and steps aside in the fourth year, allowing new winners to emerge in that category.
2021, 2022 and 2023 - Best New Distillery
2024 - Best Distillery (!) and the Trifecta for Best New Distillery

World Whisky Awards
The World Whiskies Awards, organised by Whisky Magazine, is a prestigious annual competition recognising the best whiskies worldwide. The awards cover multiple categories, including single malts, blended whiskies, grain whiskies, and more.
The tasting category is the core of the competition, where entries are blind-tasted by expert judges. Whiskies are assessed based on aroma, taste, balance, and overall character. The competition progresses through multiple rounds, starting with regional winners before culminating in the selection of global winners for each style. This ensures a fair and rigorous evaluation, highlighting the finest whiskies from around the world.
