Clever, strong, wise
Pedro Furtivo is Spanish for Sneaky Pete, and every label tells a fable of Pedro at a different age.
The clever one
“El joven Pedro era el más listo y astuto de todos los zorros jóvenes; afilado era su diente y suave era su pata.”
The clever one
“El joven Pedro era el más listo y astuto de todos los zorros jóvenes; afilado era su diente y suave era su pata.”
Young Pedro was the cleverest and most cunning of all the young foxes; sharp was his tooth and soft was his paw. 
The strong one
“El viejo Pedro era el más fuerte y poderoso de todos los zorros maduros; afilado era su diente y lisa era su pata.”
Mature Pedro was the strongest and mightiest of all the grown foxes; sharp was his tooth and smooth was his paw. 
The wise one
“De todos los zorros, el viejo Pedro era el más sabio y legendario; largos eran sus colmillos y lisa era su pata.”
Of all the foxes, old Pedro was the wisest and most legendary; long were his fangs and smooth was his paw.
Joven and High Proof Blanco are on their way.

Single estate means one source
Every bottle starts on the Martinez family land in Ixtlahuacán del Río, the hometown of Omar’s father. Both of Omar’s grandfathers farmed it; it was left behind when his father emigrated, and Omar brought it back. The agave azul grows six to seven years in its ground before the harvest.
Our process
Seven steps, slow on purpose
From the harvest to the bottle. The process page has each step, who does it and why it matters.
The whole process
Growing & harvesting
Agave takes a minimum of six years to reach full maturity before the harvest.
Cooking
The piñas cook slowly in large ovens, turning starches into fermentable sugar.
Extraction
The cooked agave is carefully shredded and its juice extracted: the mosto.
- 12
Fermentation
Wild yeast, deep-well water from the Martinez family land and some rain water.
Distillation
Double-distilled in traditional pot stills to separate the spirit from impurities.
Aging or resting
Blanco unaged, Reposado rested six months, Añejo aged over a year.
Bottling
Small batch, 100% agave azul, NOM 1360: Purveyors of Purity on every label.
Cocktails
Simple drinks, honest tequila
Few ingredients, easy at home, built to let the agave speak.
