The Singapore World Spirits Competition is renowned for recognizing top-notch spirits from all around the world. Established in 2019 by the Tasting Alliance, the competition initially focused on beverages from the Asia Pacific region but has since expanded its scope to include a more global viewpoint. Although the majority of judges and entries come from the Asia Pacific region, the competition is now recognized as one of the top spirit tastings globally.
The highly-anticipated winner of the Best In Show Vodka award at the 2024 Singapore World Spirits Competition has been revealed. The prestigious panel of judges selected Pluto Vodka, hailing from the picturesque Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia. Crafted by its eponymous distiller, Pluto Vodka is made from 100% organic Australian sugarcane, which undergoes a cool fermentation process and is distilled ten times to achieve the perfect balance of flavors. The resulting 80-proof vodka boasts a subtle sweetness with a rich body that hints at coconut cream, making it a standout choice among the judges in Singapore.
Pluto Spirits, the producer of the acclaimed Pluto Vodka, has garnered several accolades for its exceptional spirits. In addition to winning the Best In Show Vodka award at the Singapore World Spirits Competition, Pluto Spirits also received a Master Medal at the Global Vodka Masters and Best Vodka at the Tasting Australia Spirit Awards in 2023. The distillery prides itself on its commitment to quality, using only natural ingredients and forgoing additives in its distillation process.
Priced at around $68 AUD (approximately $46 USD) per bottle, Pluto Vodka offers excellent value for its premium quality. For an additional $10, customers can have their bottles shipped anywhere in Australia. Unfortunately, Pluto Spirits is not yet distributing its products in the United States, but given its recent success and growing recognition, it may soon expand its reach to American consumers. In addition to its award-winning vodka, Pluto Spirits also produces a range of other spirits, including gin and rum, all of which promise to deliver exceptional taste and quality.
The Singapore World Spirits Competition has once again highlighted the best of the best in the world of spirits, with Pluto Vodka emerging as a standout winner among a diverse field of competitors. As the competition continues to grow in prestige and influence, we can expect to see more exciting developments and new champions emerging in the future.
