We asked Moe Why Brands should enter The Chilled 100 Spirits Awards:
Why are Spirits Awards useful to bartenders?
Spirit Awards are useful for bartenders to help expand their access to different types of spirit brands. More importantly, it helps us elevate our voices to brands to help them create quality spirits.
What are the benefits to spirits brands to enter?
The benefits of spirits brands entering the Chilled 100 Spirit Awards is a great opportunity to build relationships with bartenders, which builds a stronger bond within the spirit industry. Bartenders having that brand knowledge helps us educate consumers at bars, events, or throughout our community.
What should other bartenders know about the Chilled 100 Bartender Seal of Approval?
Bartenders should know that the Bartender Seal of Approval is a spirit that has been tasted and reviewed by some of the best bartenders in the nation. If a spirit brand is approved by bartenders, this is a standard spirit that you should have behind your bar.
What should spirit brands know about the Bartender Seal of Approval?
Spirit brands should know that the Bartenders Seal of Approval is elite. Without that approval, your spirit has a less chance of being behind bars, used to create cocktails or being sold. We are the salesman/educator behind the bar, we are the ones creating the menu, or advocating for clients/customers to try spirits. You must go through us before you go through anyone else because we interact directly with consumers.
