Description
Lobos 1707 is an independent brand that was launched in 2020 as a joint venture between founder and Chief Creative Officer Diego Osorio and CEO Dia Simms, with backing from basketball icon LeBron James. Connecting New York, Los Angeles, and Mexico City, the spirits brand is focusing on premium tequila and mezcal.The idea behind Lobos (Spanish for wolves) stems from Osorio’s great-great-grandfather who was transporting tequila to Spain in Sherry barrels, quickly learning that the oak transformed the spirit into something uniquely smooth and elegant. It’s this tradition that has led to Osorio replicating the recipe with traditional tequila from Altos de Jalisco and Oaxaca, Mexico. Lobos 1707 tequila and mezcal get finished in Pedro Ximenez (PX) wine barrels.It’s the wolves on the Osorio family’s coat of arms that served as the inspiration for the brand’s image. The bottles take this further, with the hue of each expression signifying its origin. The Lobos 1707 Mezcal Artesanal sports a black bottle in reference to the Oaxacan volcanic soil that the espadin agaves thrive in. The pias are roasted in conical open-fire pits and ground in an Egyptian stone mill, producing a traditional and smooth drinking experience with a touch of warmth and spice. As all their rested expressions, the Artesanal Mezcal gets finished in PX barrels before being bottled at 84 proof.Grab your bottle today!
