The Tequila Atanasio Jornalero Experience is one of the most authentic
tequila adventures in Jalisco. This hands-on Atanasio tour takes you
straight into the agave fields, where tequila production truly begins. Work alongside
jimadores, enjoy a countryside breakfast, and explore the distillery behind the
award-winning Tequila Atanasio (NOM 1477).
With private round-trip transportation from Guadalajara, a guided field activity,
premium tasting, and free time in the Pueblo Mágico of Tequila, this is the ultimate
tequila Atanasio tour for those seeking culture, craftsmanship, and
connection to the land.
Tequila Atanasio is a family-owned distillery located in El Arenal,
Jalisco—part of the heart of the Tequila Valley. Producing tequila under
NOM 1477, the brand is celebrated for its small-batch approach,
traditional methods, and dedication to purity.
Founded by the Barranco family, Atanasio began as a farming operation
long before it became a distillery. Their generational roots in agave agriculture
shaped their philosophy: tequila must honor the land, the jimadores, and the slow
processes that make true craftsmanship possible.
Atanasio continues to produce tequila the traditional way—using brick ovens,
slow cooking, natural fermentation, and
double distillation. Their Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo expressions are
known for clean, additive-free profiles with authentic agave character. These values
make every tequila Atanasio tour a genuine connection to the origins of
Jalisco’s most iconic spirit.
Your Atanasio tour begins with private transportation from Guadalajara
to the countryside. Riding in the back of a local-style truck, you’ll head into the
agave fields with a small group to learn from skilled jimadores.
Timing may vary: Field work depends on season and weather. Your day
will be aligned to provide the most authentic experience.
The experience lasts approximately 8 hours, including transportation.
Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Pickup is at 8:00 AM.
Transportation is private. Field and distillery activities max out at 12 guests.

De las mejores experiencias, vivimos la experiencia como un trabajador de campo donde te llevan en una camioneta a los campos de agave te explican todo el proceso de cómo sería una jornada de trabajo, desayunando entre los campos de agave, después la cata educativa muy bien explicada por el maestro tequilero recomiendo esta aventura única.
