ATLANTA - GeorgiaChron -- "Blackleaf Organic Vodka is excited to expand its community engagement by sponsoring the annual Rellies Hospitality's Mixologist of the Year Award competition. Partnering with the Brown-Forman brand 'Chambord Liqueur,' this competition is the ultimate showdown for Atlanta's top bartenders and promises to be a night of creativity, skill, and exceptional cocktails.

Blackleaf Organic Vodka is a premium spirits brand representing innovation and sustainability. Founded by Kevin Larkai and expanded with the expertise of former Diageo executive Monté Burrow, Blackleaf Vodka embodies excellence and a commitment to quality.

As the official sponsor of MOYA, they will showcase some of Atlanta's finest bartenders as they battle for the title of the "Most Prolific Bartender in the Nation." Contestants will create unique riffs on the infamous French Martini, utilizing both Blackleaf Organic Vodka and Chambord, highlighting the French heritage of both brands.

"We're excited to partner with Chambord for this unique mixology competition in Atlanta. Blackleaf Organic Vodka, as the first French Organic Vodka on the market, pairs perfectly with Chambord's French Raspberry Liqueur to elevate the French Martini. This event showcases our commitment to innovation and growth in the Atlanta Metro area through our partnership with United Distributors. Being part of a prestigious business incubator co-led by Brown-Forman has made this collaboration possible, and we look forward to the creativity Atlanta's top mixologists will bring."
