Perro Verde Named Event Partner for Art Basel's Inaugural Awards Night

Miami, FL – December 4, 2025 – Perro Verde, the leading sipping mezcal on the market, is pleased to announce its partnership with Art Basel Awards for the inaugural Art Basel Awards Night.

For the first time in Art Basel's history, the organization has launched an awards ceremony recognizing excellence across the contemporary art world, and Perro Verde Mezcal will be at the heart of it—sharing its handcrafted, small-batch Oaxacan mezcal with a select group of curators, artists, celebrities, industry icons, and influencers.

Rooted in ancestral tradition yet shaped by a contemporary creative vision, Perro Verde represents the duality that resonates with Art Basel's global community. The bottle design itself reflects the brand's artistic ethos: sculptural, minimal, and crafted with the same care found in every sip. Each bottle is individually numbered, reinforcing Perro Verde's dedication to small-batch production, authenticity, and rarity—qualities that resonate deeply with an Art Basel audience that values collectible, thoughtfully designed objects.

The ceremony will take place on December 4, followed by an after-party on the rooftop of the New World Center, where Perro Verde will be the only spirit partner, presenting a unique installation for guests to engage with mezcal the way one engages with art—through curiosity, attention, and emotion—aligning seamlessly with the platform's mission to honor the visionaries shaping the future of art.

"We are thrilled to be partnering with the Art Basel Awards," states Juan S. Rodriguez, CEO of Perro Verde Mezcal. "I believe deeply in the power of creating a memorable, handcrafted product and in the importance of true craftsmanship. We're excited to contribute to this celebration of creativity and hope to continue collaborating in the years ahead."

ABOUT ART BASEL AWARDS

Launched by Art Basel in 2025, Art Basel Awards is the world's first global honors dedicated to recognizing excellence across the contemporary art world. Each year, an international jury of experts awards medals to individuals and organizations spanning the industry whose practices and contributions are shaping the future of art. Medalists are selected against four key pillars: vision and innovation, skill and execution, engagement, and broader impact. Art Basel Awards confers both immediate, flexible support in the form of honorariums alongside global networking, philanthropic initiatives, tailored partnerships, and high-profile commissions designed to propel medalists' work onto new platforms. Medalists are recognized globally by Art Basel through year-round campaigns and initiatives, including the Art Basel Awards Summit, the annual thought leadership conference for the most influential figures in the global art world and neighboring creative industries, held in Basel, Switzerland.
