Kaffevän Coffee Liqueur was named Best in Category, and was awarded a Silver medal in the Coffee Liqueur Category, impressing the judges with its intense coffee flavor with hints of chocolate and caramel. Snowfall Vermont Whiskey (108 proof) was awarded a Bronze medal in the Alt Moonshine category, delighting the judges with its layers of flavor and clean finish.
