As Principal Sponsor, Super Liquor is pleased to announce the winners of The Drammys 2020 New Zealand Whisky Awards. With over 160 entries, this year saw great competition. Congratulations to all of the winners this year.

Best in Show – The Balvenie Portwood 21YO

Despite strong competition, the judges decision was unanimous. Finished in 30 year old port casks to enhance and develop its taste without losing its original characteristics, The Balvenie Portwood is a creamy, silky Scottish single malt. The fruit, honey and spice notes, followed with a gentle nutty finish made this 21 year old a stand out entry and worthy Best in Show winner.
