HIGH BANK TAKES HOME TWO DOUBLE GOLDS FROM THE 2022 NEW YORK WORLD SPIRITS COMPETITION
COLUMBUS, OH — High Bank Distillery Co. took home 2 Double Golds at the 13th annual New York World Wine & Spirits Competition.
Coming off their second “Best Blended Whiskey In America” win at New York’s sister competition in San Francisco, High Bank was excited to see the results of this highly-esteemed competition.
The NYWWSC judges are among the wine and spirits industry’s most trusted authorities, not only on the subject of quality wines and spirits, but also on the regional tastes and trends that drive the wine and spirits markets.
High Bank received the following accolades:
DOUBLE GOLD
WHISKEY WAR BARREL PROOF
WHISKEY WAR
GOLD
MIDNIGHT CASK BARREL PROOF
SILVER
WHISKEY WAR DOUBLE OAKED
WHISKEY WAR BARREL SELECT - 2ND FILL PINOT NOIR
HIGH BANK VODKA
Out of 672 awards given out, 83 of those were double golds. High Bank Distillery was also the only Ohio distillery to receive double golds.
Master Distiller Adam Hines explains his excitement about the results.
This is the first time we have submitted our spirits to this specific competition. I was thrilled that original Whiskey War received a Double Gold. We have seen a trend that higher proof spirits receive the highest awards. For example, our ~116 proof Whiskey War Barrel Proof also won a Double Gold. Our original Whiskey War black label comes in at 88 proof, but it still has award-winning flavor!
Continuing to win awards for our range of products is especially exciting for our local, Columbus distillery. We want to continue to put Ohio on the map for high quality, uncompromised spirits.
-Adam Hines
