LOUISVILLE, Ky., April 5, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The entry of PCS Distilling Company's NULU™ Reposado to the San Francisco World Spirits Competition has earned a Silver Medal for an "Outstanding Spirit with Refinement, finesse & complexity." More than 3,000 entries were submitted – the largest number of entries in the prestigious competition's nineteen-year history. The results of all entries winning a premium award will be featured on the World Spirits Competition website in late April 2019.
NULU™ is a 100% Blue Agave Spirit imported from Jalisco, Mexico (where the finest Tequilas in the world originate). The spirit is aged in single-use, freshly dumped bourbon barrels from two of the top Bourbon producers in Kentucky. This submission was aged five months to evolve into a smooth, sophisticated and complex premium liquor.
"We're competing worldwide now with the biggest players out there, so for us to win silver is amazing!" says Master Distiller Harrison Hyden.
"We were really excited about our Triple Gold medal for NULU™ and Gold for our Highland's Gin and Phoenix Vodka that we received last fall from the Beverage Trade Network as we competed against small craft distilleries," says CEO Keith Hazelbaker. "But now, receiving a Silver medal for NULU™ and Bronze medals for our Gin and Vodka as we compete with the best in the world is an achievement we're very proud of! And Kentuckians can now find our spirits in our Barrel Displays in Cox and Kroger Wine and Spirit Stores."
