To be shortlisted, producers must have entered a minimum of three entrants within the vodka category and all of them must win a medal at the judging.

Grainshaker was the highest ranked Australian vodka, and one of just four Australian spirits to score 98 points across the entire competition.

The winners of the IWSC Producer Trophies will be announced at the 2023 Awards Celebration at London on 19 October.

The IWSC has been awarding the Producer Trophies since 2016 to highlight the producers that have shown exceptional quality and consistency in their product.
