Hernö Gin Cocktail Awards is Swedens largest gin cocktail competition. Held in the heart of High Coast of Sweden, in the same area as Hernö Gin Distillery is located. Meet twelve of the world's top bartenders and follow their challenge to create the best Hernö Gin Cocktail.

Creativity and knowledge of our products is key for our competing bartenders, as well as a fantastic presentation and flavors.

The finals are held outdoors, a cocktail challenge where the bartenders ability to source their own ingredients is just as important. For each year, we will launch a High Coast Terroir Gin with local botanicals, flavors and aromas of the northern forests. The competitors in Scandinavia’s most challenging and unique cocktail competition will only be able to use our limited Hernö High Coast Terroir Gin and what they can source from the High Coast forest.

At Hernö Gin Cocktail Awards you can find food from the renown restaurant Linnea & Peter as well as cocktails served by last years Hernö Gin Cocktail Awards winner Tom Surma with support from a handful of top level bartenders.
