The Agavo Awards celebrate the best in agave spirits—Tequila, Mezcal, Raicilla, and more.
Created by Tequila Matchmaker in collaboration with the AMCP, these awards are unique: all spirits are blind-tasted and purchased at retail, meaning the judges sample the exact same bottles available to the public.
Divided into two tracks—Taste and Marketing & Design—the awards highlight not just flavor, but the storytelling, branding, and educational efforts that surround great agave spirits.
This year, PKGD was honored with multiple awards across both categories. Here’s what we brought home:
🥇 Double Gold – Best YouTube Marketing Video
“Felipe’s Way”
A short documentary that captures the legacy, labor, and love behind G4 Tequila.
🏆 Best Of:
🏆 Best Mezcal: Ultramundo; Best Raicilla: Asil
Two of our producer-owned brands, both recognized as the best in their category.
🥇 Double Gold – Best Educational Production
