Madrid, 16 July 2026. At Unesdi Distribuciones we keep showing, edition after edition, that the quality of our portfolio is no accident. At the 2026 International Wine & Spirits Awards (IWSA), one of the most demanding international competitions in the sector, eight of our references were recognised by an expert jury: four Gold and four Silver medals.
A result that reinforces the trust distributors and customers place in every bottle we bring to market.
The gold that confirms our commitment to quality
Four references won Gold, each for different reasons, but all with the same message: the quality of our portfolio is backed by one of the most demanding international competitions in the sector.
The big news is the Gold won by Mombasa Club Gin, which reaches 94 points, the highest score in our entire portfolio and on the brink of Grand Gold. A result that confirms our flagship product as one of the most consistent gins on the market.
Laberinto de Cidonia Godello scores 92 points and adds one more Gold to an ever-growing track record. Pato Mareao Albariño also scores 92 points and reaffirms itself as one of the best Rías Baixas albariños in our range. Palomo Cojo Barrel Fermented reaches 93 points, the highest score in the entire Palomo Cojo range, our most recognisable brand.
Exceeding the 90-point threshold, in a competition with more than 2,400 samples tasted this year, is not easy. Doing it with four different references is an additional guarantee for those who bet on our range.

These eight awards at the 2026 IWSA add to other recent recognitions that confirm the strength of our proposition: the Silver Medal for Mombasa Colonels at the Drink Spirits Award in London, the medals won by Laberinto and Palomo Cojo at the AEPEV awards, and the recognition as Best Independent Distributor granted by Mercados del Vino.
For our distributors, each of these awards is one more tool: a quality guarantee that backs every sale and strengthens confidence in the brands they represent. You can check the official list of IWSA 2026 results. Thanks to the whole team and our wineries for making it possible.
