ABOUT AMATITEÑA
Amatiteña is produced by NOM 1477. Our brand is inspired by Amatitán, which means a small village of Amates, where the cultivation of agave has been practiced since the 18th century, due to its long-standing tradition in cultivating blue agave for the production of the spirited beverage known today as Tequila.
The brand was created by Engineer Alberto Partida Hermosillo, a Master Tequilero from the third generation of the Partida family. He grew up in a town of honest and hardworking people, and decided that his brand should carry the name of the village where he grew up: AMATITEÑA. This represents a high value in its process, aiming to preserve the ancestral traditions of Jalisco, the agave fields, and the production of Tequila.
