Avion Tequila
Highland agave tequila, slow roasted and patiently aged since 2009.
The story behind Avion
Avion comes from Jesus Maria in the Los Altos highlands of Jalisco, where the Blue Weber agave grows at roughly 7,000 feet. Ken Austin and Kenny Dichter founded the brand in 2009, and Pernod Ricard bought it outright in 2018. The piñas roast 72 hours in brick ovens, then ferment in open air and distill twice in small copper pot stills.
What separates Avion is patience. The Reposado rests six months in medium-toast Tennessee ex-bourbon barrels, triple the legal minimum, and the Anejo sits two full years against a one-year floor. A slow activated carbon filtration finishes the job. We have poured these for years and the extra barrel time shows in the glass.
Explore the Avion range
Avion keeps a tight lineup: a bright Silver, a six-month Reposado, a two-year Anejo, plus an Espresso liqueur. Every tequila here is 100% Blue Weber agave.

Big bottle, six months of barrel, enough for a full pitcher of margaritas.
Two years in ex-bourbon gives oak and caramel worth a snifter, no mixer.
Three half bottles let someone taste the whole range before committing.
