ALTOS

“At Altos, we are committed to nourishing our familia through networking and career opportunities. Our co-founder Henry Besant had a profound impact on the global tequila industry, and to honour his memory, we offer an annual $10,000 scholarship to one young bartender. This year, in recognition of the enormous impact that Covid-19 had on the service industry, we decided to award three scholarships, worth a combined total of $20,000, to young bartenders from Singapore, China and Denmark.”
CARLOS ANDRES RAMIREZ, GLOBAL ADVOCACY & PR MANAGER, HOUSE OF TEQUILA

In a world obsessed with perfection, Altos encourages people to come as they are to share unfiltered good times as a group, in the spirit of mi casa es tu casa. Unpretentious and welcoming, the brand established the Tahona Society in 2009 to bring Altos bartenders together in a multicultural familia committed to authentic, quality tequila as well as to sustainability and community. The Collective Spirits competition, for example, asks bartenders from around the world to submit proposals to better their communities or local bar culture. After a successful debut in 2018, the next competition will take place in FY22, due to delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Altos also annually awards the Henry Besant scholarship, named in honour of the company’s late co-founder, to a young bartender to give them the opportunity to continue their barkeeping education and advance their knowledge of fine tequila.
