Los Angeles, CA – Paramour, a fresh botanical low-calorie aperitif collection, is pleased to announce their Cara Cara Orange liqueur won the Silver Award while the Lavendar Yuzu liqueur won the Bronze Award at the prestigious 2024 New York International Spirits Competition. The esteemed judges are made up of buyers from top retail stores, restaurant and bar owners, distributors, and importers—a distinct panel with purchasing power. The competition judges spirits on both product and pricing category and is one of the most respected competition series in the world. This year the New York International Spirits Competition had more than 1,400 submissions from 39 countries and 38 states within the US.
“We’re proud to have been awarded both a Silver and Bronze metal by the New York International Spirits Competition,” says Raquel Tavares, founder of Paramour Aperitifs. “Given that every judge is an expert in their field and a key constituent in the industry, we’re ecstatic that our Cara Cara and Lavendar Yuzu came out on top, especially as we tirelessly toiled with the formulations to craft beautifully botanical and refined aromatic aperitifs. As a new to market brand, we’re grateful for the stakeholder exposure and to be recognized in this competition.”
Founded in 2010, the NY International Spirits Competition is the first major spirits event with trade only judges, who select only a small percentage of participants with award distinction. For Paramour, the first distilled, light aperitif liqueur sourced from fresh vegetables and fruits, winning the Silver and Bronze Award is a definitive honor that elevates the brand’s reputation.
