Cachasol Farm Distillery six-acre agave estate between Sayulita and Punta Mita, Nayarit Mexico

About Cachasol Farm Distillery

The best moments don't find you. You catch them. That idea is the heart of Cachasol.

The Beginning

How Cachasol Started

The spark came in summer 2022, after visiting a tequila distillery for a work project. It was multigenerational, clearly committed to quality, and impressive in scale. But the experience felt flat. It reminded me of the half-dozen tequila distilleries visited over the years: serious production, real heritage, hours away from where most people vacation, and not a place that made you feel much.

After years working across beer and spirits - from Don Julio, Jose Cuervo, and Guinness to Dogfish Head - the industry had been seen from two sides. Big brands had scale, budgets, and a route to market built in their favor. Smaller brands had to fight much harder for attention, even when the liquid was great.

The category felt crowded with contrived celebrity labels and heritage brands all saying some version of the same thing. There was room for something different: a tequila built around a real place, one with soul that breathes life and energy in everything it does.

The Place

A Farm Distillery Built for Guests

That feeling evolved into Cachasol Farm Distillery and Cachasol Tequila.

Think Napa falling in love with agave spirits and eloping to the coast. A six-acre farm where guests discover rustic raicilla, unpack how great tequila is made, ride the seesaws, eat, drink, and gather with family and friends in a real place tucked between Sayulita and Punta Mita.

The Spirits Behind Cachasol

Jaime "Jimmy" Villalobos Sauza

Master Distiller - Hacienda de Oro, NOM 1522

Our recipe approach is best described as innovation meets tradition. That is where Monty found the right collaborative partner in Jaime "Jimmy" Villalobos Sauza, a fifth-generation master distiller with deep tequila knowledge and a hand in every step of production at Hacienda de Oro, NOM 1522. Jimmy brought generations of craft and experience, but what made the partnership work was his openness to trying something new. Together, Monty and Jimmy created a tequila that respects tradition while bringing a fresh, rule-breaking point of view to flavor, fermentation, and quality.

Most people may never visit the farm distillery in Mexico. That is okay. The bottle is still the invitation: a little sunshine you can pour wherever you are.

Cachasol is not about escaping life. It is about catching it.
