Submit your Seltzer to Sip Magazine’s 11th Annual Best of the Northwest

by | Jun 20, 2022

We are now accepting submissions for the 11th  Annual Sip Magazine Best of the Northwest!  After hosting the competition for 10 years, we thought it time to do a deep dive into the competition process and give it a refresh based on learned experiences and feedback from producers and judges.  So NEW this year:

  • No more waiting months to find out the results. The Best of the Northwest for each specific beverage category will be digitally released within 30 days of the competition to our 40,000+ followers and opt-in subscribers. The quick turnaround should allow for product inventory to be more readily available for Sip Magazine readers to try. Additionally, the full list of the winners will be featured in the annual print issue of Sip out in February.
  • Tasting Notes will be provided for each product submitted; this will give you feedback from the judging team that blindly tasted your product.
