The Golden Leaf Awards is Australia’s premier tea awards event. This exciting competition offers you an incredible opportunity to get your unique and beautiful teas out into the Australasian marketplace, and recognised globally.
These awards focus on Australasia, however we also welcome participation from the global tea industry (however submitted teas must be commercially available within Australia). The Golden Leaf Awards winners will be announced at the Australian Tea Expo on Sunday the 31st of March, 2017.
Winning participants will receive a formal response by mail which confirms their score. Winners will also be provided with a print-ready seal to be used for all promotional materials and packaging.
Participants in the Golden Leaf Awards will also gain free entry into the Australian International Tea Expo 2017. Please note that this offer is limited to one free entry per company, regardless of the number of Golden Leaf Awards submissions made. A participant must simply state that they are a Golden Leaf entrant at the Expo gate, and then provide photo ID to confirm their identity.
