This is not your average sour. It’s a statement of flavor—bold, zesty, and silky.

The sour cocktail family has been a staple in cocktail culture since the 1920s, embodying simplicity with a few essential ingredients: liquor, citrus, and a sweetener. From whiskey to pisco, this formula has stood the test of time. The Tequila Sour is the modern take on this legacy, blending the flair of a Margarita with the elegance of a Boston Sour.
Our Filo de Agave twist elevates this classic. By using aged Reposado tequila, we’ve added layers of richness and complexity that pay homage to Mexico’s deep-rooted tequila traditions. It’s a drink that tells the story of craftsmanship, blending past and present.
