The brand was founded in 2010 by Ken Austin, who sought to create an ultra-premium tequila that emphasized traditional craftsmanship and terroir. Tequila Avión’s production process centers on slow-roasting hand-selected Blue Weber agave in brick ovens, followed by small-batch distillation and meticulous filtration to achieve purity and smoothness. This approach highlights their commitment to quality at every stage, from field to bottle.Beyond their flagship Silver, Reposado, and Añejo tequilas, Tequila Avión offers a diverse portfolio that includes extra-aged expressions such as Avión Reserva 44 and limited-edition releases like Avión Cristalino. The brand has also experimented with unique barrel finishes to enhance complexity and flavor depth. While primarily focused on tequila made exclusively from Blue Weber agave, Tequila Avión has collaborated with mixologists for specialty bottlings tailored for cocktail culture. Their innovation within the premium spirits category has positioned them as a key player among luxury tequila producers globally.
