Marques de la Mota, a licensed alcohol importer and distributor based in Los Angeles, has launched Don Juan Tequila, a baroque style fine sipping premium tequila, in the US.
Don Juan Tequila is made from 100% blue agave and produced in Amatitan, Jalisco, which has been recognized in 1769 by the Real Audiencia (Royal Court) of Guadalajara as the principal manufacturing center of tequila.
The Los Angeles-based company, which aims to position its brand in the top tier of spirit distribution catalog in the US, will produce and distribute the three variations of Don Juan Tequila - Silver, Reposado and Anejo.
Marques de la Mota co-founder Vicente Mota said: "The desire to share the passion of enjoying a fine sipping tequila along with the pairing of great recipes, food and music, was the reason to start the company.
"The selection of the name Don Juan Tequila, complements what we believe is the finest distilled Agave Tequilana that is more than a spirit, it's the representation of an entire culture, an understanding of tradition and the art of seduction," said Vicente.
The company's another co-founder Oscar Mota said: "Don Juan Tequila is distilled twice like many fine whiskeys, giving the connoisseur the baroque experience of the whole process and the enjoyment of a smooth, refined and seductive spirit."
Don Juan Tequila is available in 750ml bottles with suggested retail price of $24.99 for Silver, $29.99 for Reposado and $36.99 for Anejo.
