As this rainy February in Patagonia comes to an end, we take a moment to reflect on the journey we've traveled. Tepaluma was born decades ago as a dream, then became a bold decision that required great courage, and today, as we enter our eighth year of operations, it is a vibrant reality, constantly evolving and growing.
Maqui Gin: A Spirit that Defies Expectations
Creating a new spirit is like meeting someone for the first time. Even when it's your own creation, it takes time to understand its true essence, discover its nuances, and see how it unfolds in different moments.
Since its launch in December, Maqui Gin has taken us on an exciting journey, full of positive reactions and unforgettable moments. Thank you for sharing your smiles with us as you tasted it.
Its dark hue catches the eye and defies expectations; few associate such depth of color with a gin. But it is precisely in the unexpected that magic lies. Something different, something unconventional, can become a conversation, an experience, a discovery. And in cocktails oh my god, how it shines with its maqui flavor!
Perhaps its packaging will change, perhaps not. What do you think? How would you like to see it? Your voice matters, and we want to grow together.
The Next Chapter of Tepaluma
The time has come to gather our courage once more and take the next big step: creating our own home.
Where? We don’t know yet. But just like when we envisioned our first gin, we first understood its character before giving it form. Today, we feel the same waythe essence of Tepaluma’s future is clear, even though the details are still unfolding.
Ambitious dreams await us:
Our first aged spirit, which will see the light of day this Patagonian winter (August). We will soon open the official waiting list.
A new distillery, a sanctuary for spirits born from Patagonia’s purity.
Incorporating whisky into our production routine, a long-held dream that is finally becoming a reality.
2025: A Year to Create Legacy
This year represents much more than growth; it is a firm step toward the legacy we are building. We aspire for Tepaluma to be more than just a great spirit we want it to be an experience, a connection to wild nature, a symbol of Patagonian resilience and authenticity.
To you, who accompany us on this adventure, we wish you a 2025 filled with discoveries, unforgettable moments, and the courage to pursue great dreams. Thank you for being part of this story.
With gratitude and excitement,The Tepaluma Team.
