Also, a shout-out to @WarrantMan who visited our booth - it was great to meet you in person!
 
Congrats!! 🏆
 
As for another competition, I have been informed that I did NOT get a scovie. Not too surprising I guess.

I can't help but wonder if the blends being unsalted might hurt in straight tasting like the judges do. The habanero is one of the salted ones.
