Campesino Rum Wins Double Gold at WSWA Competition
"In a world where authenticity and quality often take a backseat to mass production, Campesino Rum has emerged as a beacon of craftsmanship. Recently, this remarkable spirit was awarded the prestigious Double Gold at the Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America (WSWA) Annual Tasting Competition, achieving an astonishing 98-point rating. This accolade not only underscores Campesino's unwavering commitment to purity and transparency but also positions it as a leader in the ever-evolving rum market."
"The WSWA Annual Tasting Competition, in partnership with The Tasting Alliance, stands as one of the largest and longest-running blind tasting competitions in the world. Earning a Double Gold is no small feat; it signifies that all judges unanimously awarded gold ratings to the entry. This prestigious honor places Campesino among an elite group of producers recognized for their exceptional quality and execution."
"'Rum has long been plagued by big brands using added sugar and coloring to mask the harsh, abrasive spirit inside the bottle,' Smith stated. His vision was clear: to produce rum that speaks for itself, free from additives and excess. With zero added sugars, colors, or flavors, Campesino lets craftsmanship and natural aging shine through. Ingredients: Campesino Rum is distilled from molasses and sugarcane, capturing the essence of its tropical origins."
Campesino Rum received Double Gold at the WSWA Annual Tasting Competition and earned a 98-point rating. The Double Gold denotes unanimous gold ratings from all judges in a major blind tasting competition. The brand was founded by Hatton Smith II to produce an unadulterated rum with zero added sugars, colors, or flavors. Campesino is distilled from molasses and sugarcane and the silver expression is aged two to five years in ex-bourbon barrels. Tasting notes include floral undertones, light vanilla, and subtle sweetness, making the rum suitable for cocktails or sipping neat. The award highlights quality and craftsmanship.
