San Diego Cocktail Brand Wins Highest Honor at San Francisco World Spirits Competition
SAN DIEGO - Californer -- A new local San Diego brand has shocked the world at the largest spirits global event by capturing the highest prize of Double Gold at The San Francisco World Spirits Competition (SFWSC) in the Ready to Drink Whiskey-based Cocktail category. The Sons & Dotters Old Fashioned, founded and bottled locally by The Dotters Family in Sorrento Valley, is now recognized as a leader in taste globally after their first entry. The Double Gold Medal signifies that Sons & Dotters Old Fashioned received Gold Medal ratings from every member on the panel during the judging process, a rare feat with the variety of tasting pallets that judge the competition.
The SFWSC presented by The Tasting Alliance, now in its 25th year, is widely regarded as the ultimate authority in the beverage world. The blind tasting competition draws over 5,000 entries annually and is judged by the industry's most respected experts purely on taste. In the third year of the ever-growing Ready-to-Drink category—spanning cocktails, mocktails, and mixers—hundreds of new cocktails were sampled but only one Old Fashioned from California earned Double Gold.

"To earn Double Gold in our first year entering the competition, it's a huge honor for my family," said Brent Dotters, co-founder and the creator of the recipe for Sons & Dotters, "We always knew we had captured something special in our bottle, now we're excited for the world to try our cocktail for the first-time with the confidence that it is award-winning."
Sons & Dotters Old Fashioned bottles can be found locally in San Diego at select retailers like Seaside Market in Cardiff, select Keg N Bottle locations, or can be ordered nationally online at SonsandDotters.com for $59.99/750 ML bottle that serves 12 standard cocktail pours.
