La Adelita Tequila Honors the Courageous Women Who Fought in the Mexican Revolution
In honor of Women’s History Month, La Adelita Tequila is celebrating its legacy with new programs named for Las Adelitas, the women who fought bravely in the 1919 Mexican Revolution.
The Adelita Army is a brand ambassador program that empowers women in the tequila and hospitality industries who embody strength, power, and bravery. La Adelita will increase their grant contribution to support the professional advancement of its Army members and will also donate a portion of each bottle sold to charity.
“La Adelita Tequila is founded on the artisanal legacy and commitment that goes into producing every bottle we make,” says Chris Radomski, Founder of La Adelita Tequila. “We battle the elements every day to farm our estate-grown agave at some of the highest elevations in Jalisco. The statue in our village square commemorates the sacrifices made by Las Adelitas, and in particular, the amazing women of our region who fought to preserve their community in Capilla de Guadalupe. We’re honored to shine a light on women who share our passion for amazing tequila and making the world a better place.”
La Adelita is a partnership of multi-generational distillers, jimadors, and renowned vintners from Mexico to California to craft an authentic selection of single estate tequilas in the Jalisco Highlands. The brand name honors the courageous women who fought in the Mexican Revolution, known as Las Adelitas, commemorated through the brand’s ongoing support of female spirits enthusiasts and trade.
