Agave Spirits
Producer of the Year.
ARTFULLY CRAFTED FOR GENERATIONS
Every artist has a muse. For Don Felipe Camarena, it was the blue weber agave. At La Altena distillery, we stay true to his vision and honor our agave using traditional handcrafted methods, elevating tequila to a work of art.
We are a community for sure. A community of highly skilled, hardworking, fantastic people. El Tesoro is a tequila defined by these skilled people.”
We know when the agave plants are ripe due to the size and shape of the piña, and when the stem begins to shrink. It is knowledge that you cannot learn in a book, but by living and working."
AWARD-WINNING, AGAVE-FORWARD TEQUILA
We craft our tequila to make our muse shine— you’ll taste the fruity, floral flavor of our Jalisco Highlands-grown blue weber agave in every drop. One sip and you’ll understand why we call El Tesoro the Art of Tequila.
I’ve dedicated my entire life to La Alteña as a distiller. I have carried out these duties since the beginning, because that is how the generations before me have done it."
