Three Ships wins coveted international award
The Three Ships Bourbon Cask Finish received the category award for the 'Best Rest of the World Blended Whisky' at Whisky Magazine's 2011 World Whisky Awards, held in London earlier this month, where 300 whiskies battled over three tasting rounds for the coveted titles of the '2011 Best Whiskies in the World'.
Hosted by Whisky Magazine, the competition is chaired by Dave Broom, contributing editor to the magazine and editor-in-chief of Whisky Magazine Japan.
The range of Three Ships whiskies are produced at The James Sedgwick Distillery in Wellington. Since the launch of the Three Ships Select just over two decades ago it has undergone several upgrades which has transformed it into a state-of-the-art distillery. Master distiller, Andy Watts, says the award is an enormous recognition for a proudly South African product, especially since the whisky also recently received gold at the 2010 International Spirits Challenge.
It is available from leading liquor outlets and retails for around R115.
