The Global Whisky Challenge aims to define excellence in whisky production worldwide and permit distillers of all sizes from all locations to compete globally.

Whisky’s popularity has not waned even in these uncertain times; brands must continue marketing to stand out in the global market. Rest your whisky, not your marketing.”
— Christopher J Davies, Co-Founder.
