Sahara wins Gold at The Liqueur & Speciality Spirits Masters 2025
Sahara is proud to announce that our spirit has been awarded Gold at The Liqueur & Speciality Spirits Masters 2025, organised by The Spirits Business.
Each year, The Spirits Business gathers industry experts to blind taste and celebrate the most exceptional products in the world of liqueurs and speciality spirits. Among a global field of innovative creations, Sahara stood out in the “Mahia” category, earning praise as a “well-made” spirit that was “biscuity, with a hint of fennel.”
This recognition holds deep meaning for us. Sahara is making Mahia shine, an ancestral and rare Moroccan spirit traditionally crafted with figs or dates and infused with aniseed. Our mission has always been to revive this heritage for a contemporary audience, capturing the true Spirit of Morocco through a modern lens.
Winning Gold affirms that our dedication to authenticity, craftsmanship and storytelling resonates with both experts and enthusiasts alike.
To us, this isn’t just an award — it’s a celebration of Morocco’s rich distilling tradition and of everyone who has joined us on this journey so far.
Thank you for sharing in the Spirit of Morocco.
