Where The Trade Decides
A big thank you to all of the brands who participated in our 10th incredible year in New York City!
The 10th Annual New York International Spirits Competition was excited with the quality and number of submissions we received in our 10th year. Over 600 spirits from around the world were submitted and judged by our trade only judges. We look forward to the 11th Annual NYISC being held April 5th, 2020!
Stay tuned for some exciting announcements about next year’s lineup.
*Please note that due to customs and other shipping delays, late spirits will be judged by a smaller panel. Please check the list below for the latest winners.
