Dunn's River Lemon Jerk Seasoning from Grace Foods UK has been awarded a coveted Great Taste Award in the 2025 awards – a mark of excellence recognised across the global food and drink industry.
Organised by the Guild of Fine Food, Great Taste is the world's largest and most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme, with more than 14,000 products submitted annually and judged blind by a panel of more than 500 industry experts. Only the best receives the sought-after star rating – an independent seal of approval from chefs, buyers, food writers, and retailers alike.
The judging panel praised Dunn's River Lemon Jerk Seasoning as "A versatile little rub. Packed with flavours and a lot of citrus (rind coming through). This rub had the judges dreaming of a summer bar-b-q and we think it would pair beautifully with fish. A vibrant, fire orange coloured seasoning that is lemon forward on the nose and on the palate. It certainly brightened the chicken it was cooked with and gave it a zing."
Made with a zesty blend of Caribbean spices, Dunn's River Lemon Jerk Seasoning delivers bold flavour and aromatic citrus punch - perfect for grilling, roasting, and elevating everyday dishes.
Kim Lue Lim, Head of Marketing at Grace Foods UK, commented: "We are over the moon to win this Great Taste Award. Great Taste stars are highly respected seals of approval and for Grace to receive yet another accolade at these prestigious awards is testimony to all the talented people across the many Grace food and drink brands who are passionate about taste and nutrition and bring the best Caribbean products to the tables of families across the world."
Grace Foods UK managing director Brian Mitchell said: "The team at Grace Foods UK work tirelessly all year round to create the best products inspired by authentic flavours from the Caribbean and around the world. The recognition from the judges that our Dunn's River Lemon Jerk Seasoning really evoked the tastes of a summer barbecue is a testament to the fact that when it comes to creating seasonings and rubs packed full of flavour, Grace is the best in the business."
The win further cements Grace Foods UK's reputation for delivering quality, authentic Caribbean flavours to the UK market, and reinforces Dunn's River's position as a trusted staple for adventurous cooks and flavour lovers.
The award for the Dunn's River Lemon Jerk Seasoning is the third Great Taste Award for Grace Foods UK. Last year, Grace Jamaican Honey Jerk Season scooped an accolade and in 2023, Grace Exotic Chips – Sweet Purple Potato, won an award.
