New St. Kilian Awards 2020
San Francisco, London, Neustadt - our single malts are showered with medals
San Francisco, London, Neustadt - St. Kilian Distillers was able to reap the rewards of its distilling art at three nationally and internationally renowned competitions. The passion in production, the high-quality ingredients and the original Scottish equipment pay off: The critical jury in London, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and the Meininger's International Spirits Award rewarded the work with several medals.
The results of the "London Spirits Competition" are extremely gratifying:
- Best in Show by Country
- Distillery of the Year
- Spirit of the Year
- Whisky of the Year (Signature Edition FOUR)
- GOLD / 97 points (Signature Edition FOUR)
- Best Spirit by Value
- Best Spirit by Package
The entire St. Kilian team is particularly pleased about the award for "Distillery of the Year", because this is the well-deserved reward for the joint efforts of the first few years.

Full success also in San Francisco
Here, the single malts "Signature Edition ONE" and "Signature Edition THREE" were submitted, and due to the Corona Pandemic, the evaluation took a little longer.
Here, too, the single malt whiskies have had great successes:

Two more gold medals at the Meininger''s Award:
At the 17th Meininger's International Spirits Award ISW, almost 50 spirits experts were guests in Neustadt at the end of June and professionally tasted and evaluated countless submitted spirits. Strict guidelines limit the awarding of medals to a maximum of 30 percent of the products submitted and St. Kilian mastered this hurdle with flying colours.
