In what category and what was it up against?

The only link I could find in any article was to here: http://www.worldwhiskiesawards.com/winner/whisky/2018

And there it says the Johnnie Walker Gold Label won best blended.

Edit: Newspaper linked to last years results. Apparently this years results haven't been announced yet and will only be announced on 28 March 2019.

'World's Best Scotch Whisky' according to the article.

A lot of these Lidl/Aldi awards don't stand up to scrutiny.

Which is weird because that is not a category World Whiskies Awards lists on their competition site. The closest category they have that this would fit in would be Blended 12 Years & Under

might be a hoax. it's the same article word by word everywhere and no proof on the contest website.
