The awards are based on organoleptic and scientific criteria, making the Monde Selection Quality Award a significant accolade in the industry, with many spirits competing for the honor annually.
John Watling’s Bullion 10-year-old rum was launched to mark The Bahamas’ 50th anniversary and the 10th anniversary of John Watling’s Distillery, Ltd.

The product is presented in a crystal decanter and a bespoke box, with only 2,250 bottles available.
The award was presented at the Hofburg Palace in Vienna, Austria. A panel of judges, including oenologists, master sommeliers, and oenology professors, evaluated each product according to strict criteria.
This achievement reflects the efforts of the employees at John Watling’s Distillery, whose dedication to quality has been instrumental in this recognition.
John Watling’s Bullion is available in exclusive liquor stores, luxury hotels, high-end bars, and restaurants throughout The Bahamas.
