Dulce Vida Tequila
Organic highland tequila, poured in Commack since it landed.
The story behind Dulce Vida
Dulce Vida started in Austin in 2009, founded by Richard Sorenson, but the liquid comes from the Los Altos highlands of Jalisco, around San Ignacio Cerro Gordo. The agave is 100% Blue Weber, grown organically in that red highland soil, and the brand carries USDA Organic certification and an additive-free verification. Cooking happens in autoclaves, extraction on a roller mill, fermentation in open-air stainless tanks, double distillation in stainless pot stills.
Milestone Brands bought the company in 2016. The Blanco took Double Gold at San Francisco in 2010, early in its run. Bottles get an aeration pass before filling, which knocks the ethanol edge down. We have poured it across this counter for years, and the flavored line moves fastest in summer.

Pricing here is straightforward. The 750mL Blanco runs $25.99, and every flavored 750mL, Lime, Grapefruit and Pineapple Jalapeno, sits at the same $25.99, so you are not paying a premium for the fruit. The 50mL minis are $1.99 each, which is the cheapest way to find out whether the jalapeno heat suits you before a full bottle. Call ahead on stock, since these turn over quickly and availability moves.
80 proof, clean agave, priced to pour for a crowd without flinching.
Real grapefruit already in the bottle, so soda and lime finish the job.
Pineapple up front, jalapeno on the finish, works in a spicy margarita.
