The New Orleans Spirits Competition is a judging to determine the best spirits being produced today — craft brands as well as legacy brands. 
Presented by the Tales of the Cocktail Foundation, each spirit is tasted blind by a panel of industry experts, without identification, to ensure integrity and secrecy. 
The judging panels will include preeminent craft bartenders, distillers, spirits journalists and others with decades experience in the industry. 
Awards will be presented during Tales of the Cocktail, the largest and most prestigious event for serious bartenders worldwide.
