Penta Tequila, a uniquely crafted small batch tequila inspired by blending the art of winemaking with the history of traditional tequila making methods, introduces its elegant range to the U.S. market.
Roughly 2,000 cases each of Penta Tequila Diamante Reposado Cristalino ($100 SRP), Penta Tequila Reposado ($125 SRP) and Penta Tequila Añejo ($150 SRP) were produced in the initial run, and the brand is currently available in California, Louisiana, Tennessee and Texas, with plans to launch in New York spring 2020..
Named for the Greek word for “five,” Penta Tequila is produced from 100% blue agave sourced from Mexico’s five legally protected designation of origin states for tequila production: Jalisco, Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas.
In 2015, Steve Reynolds, winemaker at Reynolds Family Winery in Napa, C.A. and Executive Producer of Agave: Spirit of a Nation, joined forces with four equally tequila-obsessed friends in Napa’s wine business with the goal of creating ultra-premium tequilas using winemaking techniques, not typically used in the tequila making process.
