“Four Gold Medals at the Australian International Spirits Awards means a lot, because this is home turf, judged by people who know Australian spirits better than anyone. To have both taste and design recognised, from the Mizunara Oak Rare Cask through to Ember Eclipse, Ruby Abyss and Devil’s Storm, tells us the work we’re doing across the whole range is landing. It’s a great result for the team.” LARK Master Distiller Chris Thomson commented.
Organised by Melbourne Royal, the Australian International Spirits Awards (AISA) is one of Australia’s longest-running spirits competitions, established in 2015 and opened to international entries for the first time in 2025.
