Carpathian Single Malt Whisky’s Cognac, Ruby Port and Amarone expressions took gold at the recent World Whisky Masters 2023 in the UK, whilst Fetească Neagră, Madeira, Burgundy, Commandaria and Vradiano were awarded silver.
At the International Spirits Challenge (UK) Fetească Neagră & Cognac expressions all took bronze, as did their Oloroso expression at the International Wine & Spirit Competition (UK). In the US at the Ultimate Spirits Challenge Cognac & Fetească Neagră collected 91 & 90 points respectively in their category. These top accolades are an important recognition of Romania’s first single malt whisky quality and a well-deserved reward for the team that worked on the project.
