Dos Hombres Receives New Growth Investment to Expand Distribution, Drive Brand Awareness and Launch Premium Innovation

New York, NY—December 3, 2025—Today, Dos Hombres, the artisanal mezcal brand co-founded by actors Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston, announces the successful completion of a significant growth-equity investment. Proceeds from the new investment will accelerate the brand's awareness and distribution, further invest in Dos Hombres' sales and field resources, and expand the premium product portfolio, including a series of exciting new releases set to debut in 2026.

"When Bryan and I started Dos Hombres, it was our mission to create the best-tasting mezcal that embraces the authenticity and heritage of this storied spirit," said Aaron Paul. "In partnership with Gregorio, we have developed the smoothest and most approachable mezcal with a unique flavor profile that sets us apart. We are excited for this next chapter of Dos Hombres."

"We aspire to be the leading global premium agave spirits brand," said Bryan Cranston. "We've built a strong national presence that positions us to achieve that vision. This investment gives us the resources to accelerate our growth and bring Dos Hombres to more consumers nationwide."

Dos Hombres is made in San Luis del Rio, Oaxaca, using traditional, electricity-free methods passed down through generations. Mezcal maestro Gregorio Velasco meticulously oversees each batch, refining the family recipe with every distillation, producing a spirit that is both artisanal and deeply rooted in Oaxacan heritage. From the beginning, the brand has linked its growth to community investment, with its 100% charitable merchandise line supporting the village of San Luis del Rio and other Oaxacan communities by providing clean drinking water, securing and expanding potable water wells, improving infrastructure with nearly 15 miles of paved roads, and funding renovations and resources for the local medical facility. This new investment includes participation from Mexican partners Fernando Romero-Luna and Gregorio Velasco, strengthening their commitment to product quality and authenticity, reinforcing their long-term partnership with the brand.

Centerview Partners LLC serves as the financial advisor, Katsky Korins LLP as legal counsel, and Latham & Watkins LLP as legal counsel to the lead investor.
