Korean whiskey brand Golden Blue said Tuesday that all of its entries to the 2017 Monde Selection were given quality awards for the third consecutive year.

The Monde Selection is an annual quality evaluation event that takes place in Brussels, Belgium. For the spirits and liquor selection, a jury of 100 spirits specialists evaluates products over five months and doles out quality awards to outstanding products.

This year, the Golden Blue Diamond and Golden Blue Sappirus were awarded the Gold Quality Award for the third consecutive year, winning the International High Quality Trophy.

Golden Blue’s new white whiskey Phantom the White and its 35 percent alcohol whiskey Phantom the Original were also both given Gold Quality Awards this year.
