Historic Family Estate Cascahuín Tequila Partners with T. Edward Wines & Spirits for National Representation

New York, NY, April 8, 2026 — T. Edward Wines & Spirits (TEW) is proud to announce its appointment as the national importer of Cascahuín Tequila, marking a significant milestone in the company’s continued expansion within Mexico’s most revered spirits category. Beginning May 1, 2026, T. Edward will represent Cascahuín across all U.S. markets.

Produced in the heart of El Arenal, Jalisco, Cascahuín is a historic, family-owned distillery celebrated for its unwavering commitment to traditional methods and expressive, terroir-driven tequilas. Founded in 1904 and stewarded today by Salvador Rosales Jr., the brand has earned global acclaim among agave purists for its transparency, craftsmanship, and deep respect for heritage. T. Edward and the Rosales family are united by a shared vision rooted in authenticity, category leadership, sustainability, and a deep commitment to multigenerational stewardship.

This partnership reinforces T. Edward’s position as a leading importer of authentic, family-owned agave spirits, building on a portfolio that includes benchmark producers such as Tequila Arette, Lagrimas de Dolores, and Yola Mezcal. With Cascahuín, TEW deepens its investment in tequila while adding a distinct regional perspective from El Arenal, alongside a producer widely respected for its experimental, small-batch approach to production. From nuanced variations in core expressions like Plata—shaped by fermentation in materials such as concrete or stainless steel—to highly limited, one-off releases, Cascahuín adds an elevated, innovation-driven offering.

“Cascahuín represents everything we value in the agave category—heritage, transparency, and an uncompromising dedication to quality,” said Emily Wynbrandt, Spirits Portfolio Manager at T. Edward Wines & Spirits. “As a historic, family-owned estate, it strengthens our commitment to showcasing producers who are true stewards of their land and traditions. This partnership is a natural extension of our agave portfolio and an important step forward as we continue to grow our footprint in tequila.”

Under the leadership of Salvador Rosales Jr., Cascahuín has become synonymous with innovation rooted in tradition—reviving ancestral techniques while setting new standards for modern tequila production. His influence and reputation within the category have positioned Cascahuín as one of the most sought-after producers among bartenders, collectors, and agave enthusiasts alike.

“This partnership with T. Edward marks an exciting new chapter for our family,” said Salvador Rosales Jr., owner and master distiller of Cascahuín Tequila. “Everything we do is rooted in honoring what my grandfather began—caring for our land, our agave, and our traditions so they can be carried forward for generations to come. With T. Edward’s deep understanding of family-owned producers and the U.S. market, we’re proud to grow thoughtfully, share our tequila with a wider audience, and stay true to who we are and where we come from.”

Cascahuín’s portfolio will be positioned within the premium tier, with core expressions such as Cascahuín Plata alongside a range of limited and experimental releases that reflect the brand’s commitment to innovation and scarcity. The tequila appeals to a broad spectrum of consumers—from newcomers to seasoned aficionados—particularly those drawn to additive-free, producer-driven brands with a strong sense of origin and craft.

From a distribution standpoint, Cascahuín has long prioritized its home market, with approximately 60% of production remaining in Mexico—a decision that has preserved its authenticity and deepened its cultural relevance. The remaining 40% is primarily allocated to the U.S. market, where demand continues to grow as consumers discover the brand through travel and top-tier bar programs in Mexico City and around the world.

With T. Edward’s national network, Cascahuín is poised to expand its presence across both off- and on-premise accounts, from leading national retailers and specialty shops to some of the country’s most respected cocktail bars. Together, T. Edward and Cascahuín expect to double the revered tequila brand’s business in the U.S. in the coming years.
