Solento Tequila was founded by legendary surf filmmaker Taylor Steele. After two decades of immersing himself in the production process, Taylor saw the need for a premium sipping tequila that encouraged us all to slow down and enjoy what's in the glass.

To make his vision a reality, Taylor partnered with the Montes Family, who has owned a single-estate farm and distillery in Jalisco for the three generations called Las Americas. They produce small-batch tequila made from organic blue agave in a process that respects the local environment.
 
Sustainability is a core component to Solento. They use recycled glass for their bottles and FSC-certified recycled paper for their labels and shipping boxes. They also donate $1 from each bottle of Solento purchased to RAPAM, their nonprofit partner in Mexico.

Winning Double Gold at the 2019 SIP Awards, Salento Blanco is a USDA certified organic sipping tequila. Made from 100% organic blue agave in small batches from a single estate, Salento Organic Blanco is citrus forward with notes of vanilla. The sweeter notes are present due to the elevation at which the agave is grown, complemented by meticulous harvesting techniques which cutaway any bitter parts of the plant to deliver you a smooth and easy sip; A Celebration of Slow.

Solento Anejo is a USDA certified organic sipping tequila, made from 100% organic blue agave in small batches from a single estate. Earned from eighteen months of aging in used American Oak barrels Solento Organic Anejo is smooth with notes of buttery maple and oak.
VINE PAIR GUIDE TO TYPES OF TEQUILA
  • Silver/Blanco/Joven: generally unaged (or very briefly aged, for smoothness, e.g. “Suave” styles); full of agave flavor, but also heat, and an impression—but not taste—of vegetal sweetness
  • Gold: Basically a hybrid type, usually a mixto with coloring added to make it seem aged when it’s not; best bet is buying a brand that actually states “100% agave” on the label
  • Reposado: Meaning “rested,” aged in wood barrels for 2 months to under a year
  • Anejo: Aged between 1 and 3 years, the widest available complexly aged tequila, with softened heat and good wood character; too much aging isn’t recommended, as tequila is about expression of vegetal agave
  • Extra Anejo: A newer category, aged over 3 years, not as many examples but worth looking into if you like wood characteristics

Solento Organic Tequila is produced in small batches at a single-estate, family-owned farm and distillery in Jalisco, Mexico. Our partners — The Montes Family — have perfected their craft over the past three generations, using a production process that respects the local environment: hand-harvesting sustainably-maintained, organic, 100% blue agave.

SOLENTO FOUNDER TAYLOR STEELE

As a kid growing up on the beaches of Southern California, Taylor Steele discovered a lifelong love for the thrill and serenity of surfing. Just a few years after he’d begun filming his best friends out on the waves, Taylor turned his two greatest passions into a vibrant career, emerging as an award-winning filmmaker, creative visionary, and vital force in bringing surf culture to the masses.

Over the past two decades, Taylor has immersed himself in the global community, serving as creative director of Corona Australia and creating films for National Geographic. Eventually landing in New York City, he experienced an unlikely revelation after an artist friend introduced him to premium sipping tequila. In that simple ritual, Taylor tapped into the possibility of bringing purpose to pleasure: drinking not to disconnect, but to slow down and savor each moment.

With the founding of Solento Organic Tequila, Taylor now extends his treasured ritual to all those looking to realign with their own truest essence. Born in New York City but steeped in California soul, Solento embodies the charmed duality that defines Taylor, ultimately creating space for a much-needed celebration of presence in even the most fast-paced of lives.
