As the only fresh-fruit-infused tequila, Dano’s has perfected the process without sacrificing the quality or taste. Forget what you know about flavored spirits, Dano’s uses actual fruit, not extracts like you’ve seen with other spirits.

“We partner with local farmers to harvest the most perfect pineapples and jalapeños at the peak of ripeness,” said Chris Timmerman, CEO and Co-Founder of Dano’s Tequila. “We hand cut these fresh pineapples into chunks and cut fresh jalapeños in half and de-seed. We then soak that wonderful, fresh fruit in our 100% agave Blanco tequila for just the right amount of time. We then squeeze it, strain it and bottle it, all by hand.”
