Montanya Distillers Recognized as a “Best For The World” B Corp
Montanya Distillers, a Certified B Corporation, has been named a Best For The World™ B Corp in recognition of its performance beyond commercial success. Montanya Distillers ranks in the top 5% of all B Corps in its size group worldwide for its environmentally sustainable business practices. The American craft rum distillery earned this honor because of initiatives such as using Cradle to Cradle glass, sourcing American sugar cane from a family co-op that operates sustainably, and using 100% wind power to run its Tasting Room and distilling operations. Since the distillery’s certification in 2018, it has also become certified plastic neutral and has installed an onsite biodigester.
