"As an Asia spirit industry person and spirit lover and I would like to provide a professional point of view for each spirit that I judge.

The HKIWSC would be a powerful, public and fair platform to present an Asian point of view for each spirit.

HKIWSC results give consumers a reference point when they are buying their spirits and also influences spirit makers by giving professional feedback to adjust their products."
