I am trying to wrap my head around this.

This was supposedly coming from the following website http://www.worldwhiskiesawards.com/winner/whisky/2018

But have search low and high to find the Lidl Whiskey Queen Margot, but i have been unable to find it in any awards.

From a quick google search various website spread the same news, but none actually link to a reputable source for this.

As far as i can find Lidl won the chain supermarket last year whiskey award while Aldi have just earned a Gold Medal at the 2018 Scotch Whisky Masters awards.

The two winners are the Highland Black 8-year-old Blended Scotch and their Glen Marnoch Islay Single Malt.

Can someone please enlighten me if i am wrong ...

Edit: Just found this link https://www.forbes.com/sites/felipeschrieberg/2019/02/28/fak... That explain that the so called websites are really as expected ... not to be trusted.

I've also been digging around and eventually found that "Winners will be announced on 28 March 2019" on their site so I'm guessing the winner hasn't officially been announced yet.

Right, it seems that those are round 1 results
