The World Whisky Masters 2026 is conducted by The Spirits Business, judged blind by a panel of leading spirits specialists. Silver, Gold and Master medals are awarded by category, with Master winners going forward for consideration for the overall World Whisky Taste Master 2026 title. Results will be published in the August 2026 edition of The Spirits Business and online at thespiritsbusiness.com.

LARK CEO and Managing Director Stuart Gregor said:
“Every single whisky we entered came home with a medal - that's not luck, it's a team that's obsessive about quality across the whole range. It's a great result for Chris and the whole team, and it's another step towards Lark being recognised as the genuine leader in New World whisky.”

Seamus Carroll, General Manager of The Whisky Club, said:
“We knew all those painstaking hours tasting cask samples with Chris was worth it! When we select whiskies for Club Members we encourage whisky makers to flex their creative muscles, push them to create truly unique one-offs without worrying about needing to recreate it. That's exactly what Chris and the team did with these historic Seppeltsfield barrels and this Masters Medal is further validation of what our Members have been enjoying in recent weeks.”

LARK's whisky range is available now online at larkdistilling.com, through trade partners, Global Travel Retail and at LARK's venues in Hobart.
