Awards

We are grateful for the Spirits industry that takes the time to learn, understand and sample product from small, craft distillers like Moon Drops: the MLSA Competition – one of the highest rated spirits competition in the world, and the SIP Awards (International Spirits Competition) comprised of a large audience of “curious consumers, engaged distributors, and supportive peers”. Between the two, we received a Triple Gold, Double Gold, Gold, Silver, and an Innovation Award across 3 products.

We display these awards in our Tasting Room proudly, not just for our patrons to see, but for our employees: each and every one of them is represented in these awards. It’s a team effort and we are rolling up our sleeves to do it again in 2024.
