Our story
The legend of
Malo Tiempo
Founded by Enrique Huitzilopochtli Cortez
Born from storm and shaped by time, Malo Tiempo is a family legend carried from the agave fields to the Ixtapa coast, passed through generations, and perfected through chaos.
This is not just tequila. This is our legacy.

The making of a legend
01
The Land
Nourished by mineral-rich soil, salt air, and the force of the Pacific.
02
The Agave
Hand-selected Blue Weber agave, allowed to mature without shortcuts.
03
The Cooking
Heat, stone, and time unlock the agave’s deep natural sweetness.
04
The Distillation
Copper, fire, and careful cuts refine the spirit without erasing its soul.
05
The Aging
Selected oak and coastal air round the spirit into a deeper expression.
06
The Finish
Rested, blended, and presented only when every part speaks as one.
