Setting High Standards

Additive Free

Purely authentic with no additives — just 100% pure Blue Weber agave.  While other tequilas take advantage of an additive allowance to increase desirable flavors through chemical enhancements, 1953 trusts our agave, time, water, and barrels to deliver the best taste with unparalleled authenticity.

American Oak Barrels

Aged in vintage American Oak barrels previously used to age premium bourbon, resulting in complex flavors and a smooth, refined finish.  We spent years sampling different barrels to ensure that our aging process resulted in the smoothest, most decadent flavors.

Family Sourced

Sourced and produced by local families whose stories are rooted in the traditions and natural beauty of Mexico. Our agave farms have been owned by one family for four generations, and our distillery has only changed hands once in over 135 years.

Masterfully Crafted

With a chemical engineering degree and a commitment to honoring the traditions and natural characteristics of agave, our master distiller melds science, tradition, and her standout talent to craft a wholly authentic, wholly natural spirit to savor.

Proprietary Yeast

Our proprietary yeast is formulated to showcase the natural flavors of agave and highlight notes of caramel and vanilla with hints of citrus and chocolate.

No Shortcuts

Slow roasted, mature agave, extracted, distilled, and aged to perfection to let natural flavors fully develop.
