Spirited success

SPAR hit the back of the net twice at the BBC Good Food Drinks Taste Awards 2021 – scoring two gold medals.

The symbol was recognised for its Spar Harmonist Rhubarb & Ginger Gin and Spar Premium French Grain Vodka, which won medals in the ‘Best Pink Gin’ and ‘Best Vodka’ categories respectively.

Spar has been supporting the award wins on social media and through in-store POS materials, available in participating Spar stores in Scotland, England and Wales.

Adam Georgiou, Spar UK brand manager, said: “This is a fantastic achievement for Spar as both our own label Spar Harmonist Rhubarb & Ginger Gin and Spar Premium Vodka have been awarded winning medals in the first-ever BBC Good Food Drinks Taste Awards.

“We are very excited for our Spar Harmonist Rhubarb & Ginger Gin to win ‘Best Pink Gin’ and our premium SPAR Vodka to win ‘Best Vodka’.

“We will be maximising these wins on pack and promoting the award to allow our retailers to make the most of the sales opportunity ahead of Christmas and the rest of the year.”

Spar Harmonist Rhubarb & Ginger Flavoured Gin 70cl is priced at £20.49 RRP, while Spar Premium French Grain Vodka 70cl is priced at £18.39 RRP.
