4 Copas was founded in 1997 by Hector Galindo Miranda—known simply as “Don Hector” in the industry—driven by a vision to craft a tequila that honored tradition while embracing purity. His pioneering efforts led 4 Copas to become the world’s first certified organic tequila, setting a new standard in the spirits world.
To bring this vision to life, Hector collaborated with legendary Master Distiller Sebastián Melendrez of Tequila, Jalisco. Together, they blended science and nature to create a spirit of exceptional quality, made exclusively from 100% organic agave, water from the lowlands, and organic yeast.
Today, 4 Copas is proudly owned by generational agave growers from Arandas, Jalisco—a family deeply rooted in the tequila tradition. Their heritage and hands-on approach ensure that every bottle of 4 Copas stays true to its origins while continuing to represent the finest in organic tequila.
Continuing the legacy of excellence, 4 Copas is now crafted under the guidance of Iliana Partida, one of the most highly regarded female Master Distillers in the industry. Production takes place at Hacienda De Oro, a distillery known for its artisanal methods and commitment to quality—faithfully continuing the brand’s legacy of being produced in the lowlands of Jalisco, near the Tequila Volcano.
4 Copas remains certified organic by the USDA and EU, and is also certified Kosher under Rabbinical law.
