The Great Taste Awards

Organised by the Guild of Fine Food, Great Taste is the world’s largest, longest standing and most respected accreditation scheme for artisan and speciality food and drink producers.

Every year, over 14,000 products from more than 100 countries around the world are blind tasted by an expert panel. Every product is assessed purely on taste, and regardless of whether it wins an award, every entry receives constructive feedback.

Winning a Great Taste award encourages confidence and commercial success for small businesses, and generates greater awareness for products locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally.

Coupled with extensive consumer and trade promotion by the Guild of Fine Food, it will lead to increased sales and brand awareness.
