To have the chance of representing your country in the biggest sherry wine mixology competition in the world, send in your cocktail proposal detailing the ingredients, quantities and mixing process, and attach a photograph of the final cocktail.  

jury of mixology and sherry wine experts will select the top 10 finalists who will compete in person for a spot at the International Grand Final. Good luck!

*IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT* The Tio Pepe Challenge team have made the difficult decision to cancel the national as well as international final of Tio Pepe Challenge 2020. We will be back in 2021!

Upcoming masterclasses in United Kingdom

Remember: talent and originality alone are not enough. In order to participate in the National Final, you’ll need to demonstrate your knowledge of sherry wines and Tío Pepe.
