At Suavecito Tequila, every bottle is a celebration of family and heritage. Nestled in the heart of Jalisco, our distillery isn’t just a place where tequila is made; it’s where tradition meets innovation under the watchful eyes of a family dedicated to quality and sustainability.
Join us as we pour out the story of Suavecito, a tequila crafted not only with the finest agave but with passion and the spirit of innovation. Whether you’re sipping it neat or mixing it into your favorite cocktail, Suavecito brings a taste of our family to yours.
Rooted in Tradition, Family at the Core
The bond of family isn’t just important; it’s foundational to how we craft our tequila. Started by the father-son duo of Bill and Jeff Foss, every bottle of Suavecito is a testament to their shared passion and commitment.
This isn’t just a business; it’s a family legacy poured into each glass, bringing a personal touch to the tequila industry.
The close-knit nature of our operation allows for unparalleled attention to detail, ensuring that every batch of Suavecito Tequila not only meets but exceeds our family’s high standards for quality and taste.
It’s this dedication that makes Suavecito more than just tequila—it’s a shared experience of tradition and excellence.
A Pioneering Spirit That Blends Tradition with a Twist
Innovation is at the heart of Suavecito Tequila, distinguishing our brand in a crowded marketplace. One of our hallmark innovations is the addition of agave nectar directly into the tequila production process.
The brainchild of Dr. Luis Ramirez, a leading expert in agave cultivation and a key advisor, this addition not only boosts the natural sweetness but crucially preserves the intense agave flavor that defines Suavecito Tequila.
This one-of-a-kind approach of adding agave nectar refines the drinking experience by eliminating the harsh burn often associated with drinking tequila. This creates a smoother, more enjoyable sip that highlights the agave’s crisp, clean flavor. Our approach maintains the tradition of tequila-making while embracing modern enhancements that elevate the tasting experience.
This blend of old-school craft and new-school thinking is what makes each bottle of Suavecito Tequila not just a drink, but a celebration of innovation.
Embracing Sustainability is Our Standard
Sustainability is woven into the fabric of our operations. Our environmental commitment is evident in how we manage our agave waste. After extracting the precious aguamiel necessary for our tequila, the remaining fibers aren’t just thrown away. Instead, they become a crucial part of how our distillery, Destiladora Agave Azul, practices sustainability.
These fibers are transported to our distillery’s worm farms, where they feed tens of thousands of worms. As the worms process the fibers, they produce a rich, organic compost. This compost is then used as a natural fertilizer on our agave fields, enhancing soil quality without chemical additives.
This process reduces waste and contributes to the health of our agave crops, ensuring they thrive naturally. It’s a perfect example of how traditional practices can harmonize with modern sustainability efforts, keeping our operations green and our tequila pure.
Excellence in Every Drop We Age
Our commitment to excellence is evident in our meticulous aging process. We exceed industry standards with our extended aging times, ensuring each tequila variety offers a distinctly refined experience.
Our Reposado is aged for eight months in retired American Oak Bourbon barrels, allowing it to absorb delicate hints of vanilla and spice. The Añejo enjoys two full years in the barrels, double the time mandated by the Tequila Regulatory Council, giving it a rich smoothness that is truly appreciated by tequila lovers.
Our Extra Añejo is matured for five years, two years beyond the usual requirements. This extensive aging imparts a depth of flavor and smoothness that makes it stand out in any tequila collection.
This dedication to an extended aging process guarantees that every glass of Suavecito is a testament to the artisanship of traditional tequila production, delivering a deeply satisfying tasting experience.
