Final Deadline in 2+ Weeks; Scovie Winners #5

In News, Scovie Awards by Mark MaskerLeave a Comment

“As a small producer, we love the feedback from live events. To see the faces – to hear the genuine appreciation for the product that we hand craft. But to get the Scove Grand Prize is a level of positive affirmation we could never have imagined. And then doubling down was just unimaginable. I recall the week before the 2014 Scovies were announced, getting somewhat nostalgic for the over-the-top thrill of getting that call, that we had won the Grand Prize. We were in denial when we got that second call!” –Steve Monteith, Lusty Monk Mustard
