The competition ensures equal consideration through strictly controlled blind tastings. The judges do not receive any information about the manufacturer or the price. Based on the tasting alone, you determine which entries deserve a gold, silver or bronze medal. Only those entries that receive a gold medal from all judges on a jury will receive a double gold award.

In 2009, Tom Lix, founder and CEO, set out to make bourbon and whiskey differently with technology. The first bottles of Cleveland whiskey hit the shelves in 2013 and the Cleveland Underground® series was born in 2015. “Accelerating the aging process was just the first step in using technology to make whiskey differently.” Tom Lix said: “Bigger and better ways are to make whiskeys with woods other than oak and the underground whiskeys finished with black cherry wood and wheat Penny bourbon are good examples of this. ”

Today Cleveland Whiskey is moving to a larger facility in the heart of Cleveland. The new space on the Cuyahoga River in the southern apartments is ten times larger than the current space and allows them to significantly increase production. Best of all, the expansion plans include a branded distillery experience that will be a must-see in the area City of Cleveland.

“Our mission is simple: make good whiskey every day and do the right thing. We lived that last year by making hand sanitizer and donating it to the frontline workers in our community, including 51,000 healthcare workers Cleveland Clinic, Nursing Homes, Cuyahoga County Police, fire and rescue services and more. The awards show that we have fulfilled the other part of our promise. We also made good whiskey every day, “he said Tom Lix, Founder and CEO of the company.
