Blas na hEireann Food Awards 2018 Entries Open

The Blas na hEireann Irish Food Awards are open for entry. Producers can enter online at www.irishfoodawards.com at a special Early Bird rate until April 30th. Now in its eleventh year, Blas na hEireann are the largest blind-tasted food awards on the island of Ireland.

The criteria on which the product is judged as well as the judging system itself, which was developed by Blas na hEireann with the Food Science Dept of UCC, is now recognised as an international industry standard.

Final entries close on June 15th.

The winners are announced at a ceremony in Dingle, Co. Kerry in October.

Previous Food NI winners include last year’s Best Artisan Burren Balsamics and Best New Product Devil’s Washtub Ale from Lacada Brewery.
