Dulce Vida Spirits Company Profile
Dulce Vida Tequilas sources its 100% organic agave from the Los Altos highlands in the Tequila region of Mexico. Because of the unique climatic characteristics and the air & soil, this area is well known for producing larger, fruitier agave, ideal for tequila. This organic agave ensures Dulce Vida makes tequila the way tequila has always tasted best: pure and powerful, free of any additives. PURE & POWERFUL Dulce Vida produces the only 100° proof, 100% organic tequila in the world and has been nationally recognized as a brand rich in tequila heritage, earning top awards in numerous competitions. What sets Dulce Vida apart is a combination of product attributes, packaging, and taste profile – including Handcrafted Distillation, 100° Proof/Navy Strength, and Organics. 100° Proof provides Dulce Vida the purity, authenticity, and full agave taste that is the cornerstone of our brand. We make our tequila at 100° proof to fashion our spirit in an old-world means, cask-strength, the way spirits were enjoyed years ago. MULTI AWARD WINNING In our short market tenure, Dulce Vida has earned accolades as the most decorated and recognized craft tequila – lending to the claim as The Most Awarded Tequila.™ As an over-proofed spirit, the company founders are particularly proud of the recognition amongst a field largely consisting of 80 proof spirits . Top honors have been earned from the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, New York International Spirits Competition, Los Angeles Spirits Competition, The SIP Awards, and Tequila.net. Aside from the taste awards, Dulce Vida has also garnered first place medals from several recognized packaging associations. Making a truly remarkable tequila is our objective in life. PRODUCED SUSTAINABLY The concept of sustainability was very strategic in the selection of our facility for tequila production. The facility not only had to be capable of making a great product, with care and diligence meeting our specifications, but also had to meet requirements for organic production and overall measures of sustainability – being a kind partner to the environment and local community. A complete recapture of all production waste is performed that yields a nutrient-rich soil supplement to the local farming community. Furthermore, as a by-product of the waste collection & processing, methane gas is captured, creating an energy source utilized to power the facility. DISTILLED IN MEXICO Dulce Vida produces our tequila in the village of San Ignacio Cerro Gordo at Campanario (NOM 1443) utilizing a Maquila approach to our operations, whereby our team is actively engaged in every detail, from harvest through distillation & aging. This vertically integrated approach is very different from an arms-length transaction of importing product, or buying liquid from a distillery. THE LIFE OF THE PARTY And while Dulce Vida’s founders have always understood the importance of purity and taste, they also recognize that – in the embrace of life’s pleasures – there is no better foundation upon which to build a good party than a good, authentic tequila. The original Gods of Party would be so proud.
