the journey to libélula

 
 

In the wild, dragonflies signal a thriving ecosystem full of life. A symbol of harmony and a reminder that everything is connected. Libélula Tequila is inspired by this creature, blending the best of tradition + ingenuity to create the perfect balance.

like any good recipe, the ingredients must tell a story

 
 
 

Our small distillery, Destiladora Bonanza, is a labor of love propelled by the creativity of the youngest generation, Jesús, Juan Pablo and Rodrigo López and anchored by our matriarch, Carmen Villarreal Trevino.

Here, we make Libélula, working alongside local farmers to grow and harvest our Blue Agave and make our tequila by hand in small batches.

 

While it is not the most efficient way, we chose quality over tools of mass production. We believe tequila should honor the agave and its environment, free of additives or sweeteners.

The agaves raised here are as good as gold. High

above sea level the seasonal climate and rich, red soil produce a plant that’s naturally sweet with an incredible flavor.
