El Tequileño The Sassenach Select is the first collaboration between the award-winning El Tequileño and The Sassenach Spirits teams. Antonio “Tony” Salles met with Scottish actor and spirit aficionado Sam Heughan on several trips to Mexico. “Creating this blend first began with us enjoying The Sassenach whisky,” says Salles. Though literally a world apart, the two combined their cultures and shared passion for creating exceptional spirits to do this new blend justice.
