Bartenders' Choice Awards
BCA was founded in 2010 by Purfict and is recognized as the most prestigious award for the Nordic bar scene. The Bartenders’ Choice Awards has been active in Sweden since 2010. Since 2017, it has also been established in Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland. The deciding jury is composed of 580 industry professionals and cocktail enthusiasts, making the jury the most knowledgeable of its kind. Each year, the jury members nominate and vote for their favorites across multiple categories before the winners are announced at the BCA Gala.
“There are so many amazing bartenders and bars in the Nordic countries and they all deserve attention and praise. When we as active bartenders created Bartenders’ Choice Awards in 2010 we wanted to create the most prestigious price for bars to strive for. Not a competition where one specific drink decides a winner but a price that celebrates the day to day grind and the importance of consistency that goes into running a great and successful bar.”
- Joel Katzenstein, Co-founder Bartenders' Choice Awards
