Our Story

MY CONNECTION WITH TEQUILA AND THE LAND IT COMES FROM IS DEEPER THAN THE PLEASURE I GET FROM SIPPING IT. LOS ALTOS IS THE BIRTHPLACE OF MY PARENTS , GRANDPARENTS AND GREAT GRANDPARENTS. I HAVE FOND MEMORIES OF VISITING MY GRANDFATHER'S RANCH THROUGH THE YEARS AND SPENDING QUALITY TIME WITH FAMILY.

WHEN WE SET OUT TO FIND A DISTILLERY, I KNEW I WANTED TO CREATE A TEQUILA THAT CAPTURED THE ESSENCE OF LOS ALTOS AND ESTABLISH A DEEPER CONNECTION WITH MY ROOTS. OUR SEARCH EVENTUALLY LED US TO 'DESTILERÍA EL RANCHITO' IN ARANDAS, A FAMILY-RUN DISTILLERY BY THE VIVANCO FAMILY, ONLY A THIRTY-MINUTE DRIVE FROM MY PARENTS' CHILDHOOD HOME THAT WE STILL ENJOY TO THIS DAY. THEY TREATED US LIKE FAMILY AND TOOK PRIDE IN THEIR CRAFT, DEVELOPING EXCEPTIONAL TEQUILA. I KNEW WE HAD FOUND OUR PLACE.

THE AZTECS POSSESSED A PROFOUND UNDERSTANDING OF THE COSMOS AND HELD A DEEP FASCINATION WITH THE STARS. THEY METICULOUSLY OBSERVED CELESTIAL BODIES AND DEVELOPED AN INTRICATE CALENDAR SYSTEM THAT INCORPORATED ASTRONOMICAL EVENTS. THEIR BELIEF IN THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF THE UNIVERSE FUELED THEIR IMAGINATION, LEADING TO TALES OF SPACE TRAVEL AND CELESTIAL JOURNEYS. THE GODDESS MAYAHUEL, ASSOCIATED WITH FERTILITY AND THE MAGUEY PLANT, HELD A SIGNIFICANT PLACE IN AZTEC MYTHOLOGY, REPRESENTING THE CYCLICAL NATURE OF LIFE AND THE COSMIC FORCES THAT GOVERNED IT.

1 / Harvesting and "Jima"

The first step is to harvest mature agave plants, which are typically around 6-8 years old. The leaves are trimmed off, and the core, known as the piña, is harvested.

2 / CookiNg

The piñas are then roasted in a brick oven for 28 hours and cooled for 24 hours to break down the complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, which will be fermented later.

3 / ExtRactIoN

Once the piñas are baked, they undergo a process of crushing and shredding to extract the delicious juice hidden within, known as mosto. This extraction of mosto is achieved through the use of a roller mill.

4 / Fermentation

Next, the mosto must ferment into ethyl alcohol in order to become a spirit. The mosto is combined with champagne yeast and under classical music combined with deep well water in large stainless fermentation tanks.

5 / Distillation

The process begins by distilling the agave juices, a step that serves to purify the liquid and intensify the alcohol content in the blend. the, tequila undergoes two rounds of distillation in copper stills. The initial distillation results in an opaque liquid known as the ordinario. The subsequent distillation yields the pristine blanco tequila.

6 / Bottling

Our bottles are crafted from 100% recycled glass made in Mexico, and every component of our packaging is sourced locally within a few miles of our distillery. We take great pride in our ongoing efforts to minimize our footprint and contribute to a greener future.

iSlA uRbAnA

Water plays a crucial role in the production of tequila, acting as one of the three main ingredients alongside agave and yeast. It is an essential component throughout the production process, facilitating the extraction of flavors from the piña and contributing to the overall quality and character of the final product.
