The organisation was perfect. Starting with the registration until the end, you were looked after very well. Regular reminders were sent with all the details about the competition. Upon arrival, no questions remained unanswered. I particularly like the fact that women are clearly in the centre here. Only women are allowed to taste in this competition. A great trophy!
