Grab your party hats, Birmingham 🥳 Local favorite Campesino Rum is celebrating their second birthday on Monday, August 16th—and you’re invited to the party! Keep reading to learn all about the birthday celebrations & how you can celebrate National Rum Day with Campesino 🍹
From the Jungle to Your Favorite Bar
If you’ve visited any of Birmingham’s beloved cocktail bars, you’ve definitely seen a bottle of Campesino Rum. It’s hard to miss, with its unmistakable white label and swing-top cap.
Campesino was founded by Hatton Smith, an Alabama native who spent his formative years exploring different regions of Latin America. Several years ago, he traveled back to Panama. While living off the grid, Hatton began perfecting his rum recipe while operating an illegal distillery in the midst of the jungle.
Two years ago, Hatton brought the unique, jungle-influenced flavor of Campesino Rum back to Birmingham—and it’s been a hit ever since!
An Award-Winning Brand
Campesino isn’t just a local favorite, either. Since it’s founding, Campesino Rum has received several national accolades, including the Silver Medal at the 2019 New York World Wine & Spirits Competition and “Best in Show” in the Rum category at the 2021 WSWA Brand Battle Tournament!
