Spirits competitions are complex machines whose smooth functioning is essential to the accurate processing, judging, and tracking of the hundreds—or thousands—of entries it receives. And the competition management experience of L.A. Spirits Awards’ directors is simply unmatched in the industry.

And because a spirits competition’s award decisions should never be influenced or dictated by its directors, L.A. Spirits Awards maintains a strict “separation of Church and State,” whereby our managers only manage and our judges only judge. The importance of this policy, which ensures the integrity and impartiality of the evaluation process, cannot be overstated.
