Noble Ice Cream is proud to announce that we have been awarded both Silver and Bronze medals at the 2024 Blas na hEireann Irish Food Awards, held in Dingle, Co. Kerry.
The Blas na hEireann Awards are widely regarded as the most prestigious blind-tasted food and drink awards in Ireland. With over 3,000 entries from producers across all 32 counties, the competition is fierce and the judging rigorous. All products are tasted blind by a panel of independent experts, ensuring that only genuine quality is rewarded.
Co-founder Juliya Kuzminova attended the ceremony in Dingle to receive the awards. "Standing there, holding those medals, I thought about how far we've come. Two years ago we were making ice cream in a tiny kitchen. Now we're being recognised alongside producers we've admired for years."
The Silver medal was awarded to our Raspberry Sorbet — a vegan, gluten-free product made with 49% real raspberry content. The Bronze went to our signature Chocolate Ice Cream, described by judges as "deeply indulgent with a clean, lingering finish."
These awards validate the approach Noble has taken from day one: no shortcuts, no artificial ingredients, just the best raw materials we can source and the patience to let them shine.
For our retail and hospitality partners, the Blas na hEireann medals provide an additional layer of confidence — independent proof that what they are stocking meets Ireland's highest food standards.
We would like to thank our growing community of customers, stockists, and supporters who have helped us reach this milestone. The awards belong to everyone who believed in the brand.
