Grapes, olives, and figs offer the most emblematic representation of Iberian culture and cuisine. Those were the first plants that immigrants and missionaries cultivated upon arrival to California.
Our goal, as a company, is to maintain old-world lost arts – big distillers can’t do what we do. This is our way of honoring those who crossed oceans to start something new.
