4 Copas Organic Extra Anejo Tequila

The World's First Certified Organic Tequila, Aged 50 Months
Hector Galindo Miranda founded 4 Copas in 1997 on a simple idea: tequila made from pesticide-free agave, lowlands water, and organic yeast, certified organic in both the US and EU and certified Kosher. The Extra Anejo is the patient end of that project — more than four years in ex-bourbon oak turns the lowlands agave silky and deep.
