Desnuda Organic Tequila continues its breakout year, earning top honors across three of the spirits industry’s most respected competitions: the Bartender Spirits Awards, ASCOT Awards, and Agavos Awards.

Most recently, Desnuda Blanco was named Tequila of the Year, Best Spirit by Package, Spirit of the Year Mexico, and helped secure Tequila Producer of the Year honors at the 2026 Bartender Spirits Awards, earning an impressive 98-point score from a judging panel comprised of leading bartenders, beverage directors, and hospitality professionals from across the United States. The Bartender Spirits Awards are uniquely focused on identifying spirits that succeed in real-world bar and restaurant programs, making the recognition especially meaningful within the hospitality industry.

These accolades build upon Desnuda’s success at the 2026 ASCOT Awards, where the brand earned seven awards, including six Double Platinum honors from the American Spirits Council of Tasters.

Among the ASCOT recognitions:

  • Desnuda Blanco – Double Platinum for Taste Competition and Bottle Design
  • Desnuda Reposado – Double Platinum for Taste Competition, Bottle Design, and Marketing Competition
  • Desnuda Añejo – Double Platinum for Bottle Design and Gold for Taste Competition

Further reinforcing the brand’s growing reputation, Desnuda also delivered a strong showing at the 2026 Agavos Awards, earning recognition for both product quality and creative execution:

  • Desnuda Blanco Organic Tequila – Gold Medal (Blanco Category)
  • Desnuda Añejo Organic Tequila – Gold Medal (Añejo Category)
  • Desnuda Reposado Organic Tequila – Silver Medal (Reposado Category)
  • Desnuda Organic Tequila – Double Gold for Marketing / Promotion / Campaign (Special Event Category)
  • Silver awards for bottle design across the Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo expressions

Together, these awards recognize not only the quality of Desnuda’s organic tequila, but also the craftsmanship, design philosophy, and cultural storytelling that have become central to the brand’s identity.

“Not just for what’s in the bottle, but for the world we’re building around it,” the brand shared following the awards announcements. “This is a win for craftsmanship, culture, and creative risk.”

Crafted under the guidance of Master Distiller Santos Ochoa, Desnuda Organic Tequila is produced using 100% organic blue Weber agave and a meticulous process designed to preserve purity, texture, and character without shortcuts. The brand has quickly become known for its hand-crafted presentation, including hand-blown style bottles, rich textured glass, natural wood caps, and design elements intended to feel timeless rather than trend-driven.

The recognition of Desnuda’s Pilgrimage Music Festival campaign and other experiential initiatives further underscores the brand’s success in blending premium spirits, culture, music, and community into a cohesive lifestyle experience.

With top honors spanning taste, packaging, marketing, and producer recognition, Desnuda Organic Tequila continues to establish itself as one of the fastest-rising names in modern luxury tequila.
