Modesto Spirits Inc. and Tequila Don Modesto were founded as a tribute to the late Modesto Того Anaya of Tototlan Del Oro, Jalisco, Mexico.
Since the early 1800s, the Того family has been involved in the raising of cattle and the growing of several species of Agave plants. One of these species is the blue agave, used as a source of pure tequila.
For several years, he and his associates produced tequila without the use of modern chemicals, and sold it locally in towns near his ranch. Upon his passing in 2007, the Того family inherited his lands, cattle and his unique process for producing high quality tequila. This process has been made available to a partner in the city of Amatitan, Jalisco, Mexico who owns and operates a tequila distillery where Don Modesto is produced as one of the few organic types of tequila on the market today.
Made from 100% Weber blue agave, Tequila Don Modesto is twice-distilled separating itself from others with a process known as the removal of the cabeza and cola. This unique process gives Don Modesto an exquisitely smooth taste and finish. Don Modesto is an all-natural tequila. Each unique bottle is hand-blown by artisans in the Jalisco, Mexico.
