Angostura has once again been recognised on the world stage, receiving six medals at the prestigious International Wine & Spirit Competition (IWSC) 2026.
The IWSC is regarded as one of the most influential competitions for wines and spirits globally, and the 2026 edition recorded a particularly strong performance in the rum category. For Angostura, the latest wins further cement the company’s standing as a producer of world-class premium spirits and support its continued growth in international markets.
Silver medals were awarded to Angostura 3-year-old, Angostura Grand Reserve 1919, Angostura Founders Reserve 1824, Angostura 15-year-old and Angostura Tamboo, while Angostura 5-year-old received a bronze medal. The rums were judged through a rigorous blind tasting process conducted by an internationally renowned panel of master distillers, buyers and industry experts.
The accolades add to what has become a growing collection of global honours for the company, whose rum portfolio has received over 40 awards within the past two years across some of the world’s most respected spirits competitions.
Angostura’s CEO, Mr. Ian Forbes, said the recognition reflects the dedication of the company’s team.
“The awards are a testament to the expertise, passion and dedication of our people, whose commitment to quality continues to earn recognition on the world stage,” Forbes said. “Receiving six medals from an organisation as respected as the International Wine & Spirit Competition demonstrates the consistency of our portfolio and reinforces Angostura’s reputation as a producer of premium spirits enjoyed by consumers around the globe.”
