How to Enter

Eligibility

The Tasting Alliance Competitions welcome entries from both established brands and emerging producers. Your product does not need to be commercially available to enter — we accept wine, spirits, and non-alcoholic beverages that are still in development, even if the final packaging is not yet complete. Our competition features a wide range of categories, ensuring that all styles and categories have the opportunity to be evaluated by our expert judges.

Entries are open to both domestic and international producers, including brands that have not yet secured distribution. Submitted samples should accurately represent the final product in terms of formulation and production quality.
