12th Annual Berlin International Spirits Competition Open For Submissions!

We are excited to be holding our 11th Annual Berlin International Spirits Competition(BISC). The BISC is one of the most respected international spirits competition in Europe – it’s the only competition where all the judges are real trade buyers judging the spirit by its category and actual price.

It is a great opportunity for established distilleries to reconnect with trade buyers as well as new and emerging distilleries and categories from around the world to be discovered by some of the top buyers. We will also be judging Non Alcohol,Hard Seltzer and Ready To Drink(RTD’s) in this year’s competition. If you have any questions about categories, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Your spirits do not have to be sold in Europe to be judged. It is open to all commercially produced spirits from around the world. Around 15-18% of those who submit are not currently sold in Europe and desire to be blind tasted by real trade buyers who are judging as if buying for their business.

Top winners will be featured and included in media coverage the Alcohol Professor and our sister Professor Publications as well as our international media partners including Drinks Intel

Top Winners will be showcased at no additional charge at our 2025 Prowein Booth in Dusseldorf two weeks after the competition.

We have not raised our submission fees in 12 years…we love and support the spirits industry!
