Are you looking for gastronomic perfection? Search for the stars of Great Taste
Do you enjoy food with refined taste and the highest quality? Of course, you can find a wide range of manufacturers or traders on the market who do not spare praise for their products. However, these words are not always backed by truth and often it is just a marketing strategy aimed at one thing: selling. So how to recognize a truly quality product?
Quality guarantee for the customer
The answer to this question can be the Great Taste award. This award can be compared to some kind of Oscar of the gastronomy world or Michelin stars in the world of gastronomic establishments. It is basically an accreditation system that gives the consumer certainty that the product they are buying meets the highest quality standards.
Whether the registered product is awarded the Great Taste star is decided by a jury composed of more than 500 highly respected experts – called the Guild of Fine Food. They can award the product one, two, or even three stars if it is truly an exceptional gastronomic experience. However, the product can also leave empty-handed if it does not appeal.
What exactly does the number of stars mean?
1 star: simply delicious
This is a product that stands out with its fantastic taste. According to the Guild of Fine Food jury, about 25% of all registered products receive their star.
2 stars: extraordinary
An exceptionally tasty food. Less than 10% of registered products receive this rating.
3 stars: outstanding
An unusually delicate and tasty product! Every year, only 2% of registered foods worldwide receive this rating. The jury themselves recommend that you definitely do not leave the store without purchasing it.
How many stars can you find with us?
Since last year's competition edition, we can boast several Great Taste stars. For example, our dark red Kampot pepper has them. Our freeze-dried pepper achieved the greatest success on a global scale. Not only did it receive a report card shining with three stars, but we also managed to achieve the highest award that can be obtained in the world of gastronomy.
If we mentioned that Great Taste can be perceived as the gastronomic equivalent of the film Oscars, then the golden statue that every entrant wishes to take home from the competition is the so-called Golden Fork. It is awarded to the best of the best, and in last year’s edition, only 14 out of more than 14,000 registered products from 108 countries worldwide received it. Our freeze-dried pepper was one of them. What captivated the judges about this freeze-dried green pepper so much? Try it yourself!
