Company Distilling, producer of premium spirits in Tennessee, has announced that two of their whiskies received Double Platinum accolades at the 2023 ASCOT Awards.
The prestigious tasting panel found Company Distilling Cask Strength Straight Bourbon Whiskey and Company Distilling Seismic Rye Single Barrel Finished with Cherry Wood worthy of the Double Platinum recognition.
The American Spirits Council of Tasters was founded by world-renowned spirits authority Fred Minnick. Across three weeks, 43 seasoned spirits judges participated in a blind-tasting experience. Scores from all judges were tallied to determine winners for the Double Platinum, Platinum, Gold and Honorable Mention categories. The premier international spirits competition recognizes top selections from across the globe and this year, judges registered more than 1,100 entries, a record for the three-year-old-competition.
