We are thrilled to announce that Rally Gin won silver in the 2022 San Francisco World Spirits Competition (SFWSC), held in April of this year.
Often referred to as “The Oscars of Booze”, (1) The SFWSC, founded in 2000, is the oldest spirits competition in North America and as of 2022, the largest in the world. (2) A panel of over 70 industry experts evaluate spirits from all corners of the world. In 2022, over 5,000 spirits went head to head – including Rally. See the competition results here.
What this means for us?
In an ever-evolving market, we are working tirelessly with our distilling partner, New Alchemy, to constantly innovate and craft the highest caliber products for our loyal supporters. 2022 was our first year competing in the SFWSC, receiving a silver medal means we are actively taking steps in the right direction.
“Taking home a silver medal is incredibly exciting. It has introduced us to additional markets want to distribute Rally Gin.”
Desmond Carr, CEO of Rally Gin.
What sets us apart?
Rally Gin is made with a custom blend of 12 botanicals using a unique vapor-distilling process that creates an enhanced spirit experience. Rally features a delicate mix of florals, citruses, and pepper, tailor-made for contemporary palettes looking to explore the age-old tradition of gin.
Unlike many other gins, Rally does not fall exclusively into any one of the five generally accepted categories; London Dry, Plymouth, Old Tom, Genever, and International Style. (3) Rally blends the juniper-forward flavors of the London Dry gin with the globally inspired flavors of International style gin to create a flavor profile all its own.
