Dano's Dangerous Tequila is an award-winning tequila brand with zero additives, produced at the second-oldest distillery in Mexico. The company's slogan, "Taste the Dano's difference!" reflects their commitment to quality and unique flavor profiles. Founded in 2017, the company has quickly gained attention in the Food and Beverage industry with its innovative approach to tequila production.
The journey of Dano's Dangerous Tequila began in a basement in Steamboat, Colorado, where Dano experimented with infusing 100% agave tequila with fresh pineapple and jalapeño. This passion project evolved into a successful business venture when Dano and Chris Timmerman, the future co-founder & CEO, embarked on a pivotal trip to Mexico. There, they met Silvia Reyes of Hacienda de Reyes, a family-owned distillery with a rich history dating back to 1840.
Collaborating with the Reyes family, Dano's Dangerous Tequila introduced the Dano’s Fresh Fruit Infusion, combining 100% Agave Azul Blanco Tequila with fresh pineapples and jalapeños. Additionally, they agreed to distribute the Reyes family's time-honored tequila under the Dano's label, expanding its reach to the U.S. market. This partnership not only showcases the company's commitment to tradition but also highlights its dedication to innovation.
The recent milestone for Dano's Dangerous Tequila was a significant $1.00M Funding Round investment on 30 August 2022. Despite the absence of specific investor details, this infusion of capital is poised to fuel the company's growth and expand its market presence. With their headquarters in the United States and a compelling narrative rooted in Mexican heritage, Dano's Dangerous Tequila holds promise for investment opportunities in the thriving Food and Beverage sector.
