II Palms Vodka Receives Multiple 2019 International Spirits Awards

TULSA, Okla. - June 4, 2019 - PRLog -- II PALMS VODKA, an Oklahoma owned, Tulsa based distilled spirit, received multiple awards at the recent 2019 Spirit International Prestige (SIP) Awards Competition held in Irvine, California.  II PALMS VODKA was selected to receive the Double Gold SIP Tasting Award as well as the Bronze SIP Bottle Design Award.

This is the first time II PALMS VODKA has competed in an international spirits competition since the brand was launched in Tulsa, OK in April of 2018.  As the only blind tasting competition of its kind, the SIP Awards offers a fair platform for top brands to showcase their products to their most discerning audience. The 2019 SIP Awards boasted a record 977 different spirits brands competing for six award tiers across 93 different categories.  The Double Gold medal corresponds to an outstanding rank of spirits which consumers judged to qualify for the top percentile of their given categories and justify strong recommendations. The SIP Bottle and Packaging Design Awards are conducted separately from tasting and recognizes successfully crafted designs that complement the spirit and appeal to the consumers' aesthetic sense. Criteria for the design awards include creativity, originality, theme consistency and overall design.  Bronze medals are noteworthy achievements deserving of recommendation.

The SIP Award competition is judged by consumers, not industry insiders, brand owners or representatives.  It provides unbiased evaluations and feedback from people who drink and purchase spirits.  Hence, it is a unique opportunity for lesser known brands like II PALMS VODKA to find out exactly how their products resonate with the public.  SIP Award recognition can be a powerful catalyst to push spirits brands into international markets.  It is an independent endorsement to both retail buyers and distributors around the globe.
