“The ‘Sense-Award’, which has been the judging system used for the Blas na hEireann, The Irish Food Awards for the past eight years, is a non- complex categorised scoring system which has proven to be a statistically valid method of judge scoring in terms of description, discrimination and ranking of product quality, as well as being user-friendly, fair, impartial, consumer relevant and transparent. The method was easily applied and effective in allowing judges to objectively assess all products using a single scale type questionnaire. The application of the ‘Sense-Award’ method at The Irish Food Awards has demonstrated that the appropriate application of sensory analysis can be highly successful in the objective discrimination of cross-category food and beverage product quality. It is wonderful to see how science and the The Irish Food Awards have evolved over the years to become an entity that is unmatched anywhere else in the world, and that is uniquely Irish in both concept and practice.”
