Heritage & History

Destilería El Pandillo in Jesús María, Jalisco, home of G4 Tequila

Our family has been making the world’s foremost tequilas in Los Altos de Jalisco since 1937. Today, Felipe Camarena and his sons, Luis Felipe and Alan, are the fourth generation to carry on this heritage. With G4 Tequilas, named in honor of the generations of master distillers that came before us, we pay tribute to our family history.

A passion for
premium

Attention to every detail is what makes G4 Tequilas so extraordinary. We believe that greatness can’t be rushed, which is why we put time and effort into every step of the process, from growing, cutting, and cooking our agave to fermentation and barrel aging

The purest expression of Tequila

Our approach to tequila is both complex and simple: Use the finest ingredients and the best techniques, and leave out what is unnecessary. At G4, we never add anything that doesn’t belong in tequila. Our tequilas have only three ingredients agave, water, and yeast – making them as real and authentic as tequila can get.
