HISTORY

1855

In the "San Antonio" ranch located in the Municipality of Tepatitlán de Morelos, Jalisco, Don Justo Galindo was born, the foundational pillar of the renowned Galindo dynasty in Los Altos de Jalisco.

In his youth, Don Justo moved to the "La Esperanza" Hacienda, where he began his foray into the cultivation of the prestigious "Agave Azul Tequilana Weber," sowing the seeds of what would become his legacy. Over time, his dedication bore fruit, and he fathered two sons, Manuel and Delfino, who continued his legacy with fervor, contributing to the momentum of agave cultivation.

1915

In the year 1915, in collaboration with his uncle Don Cirilo Franco, they erected their distillery at the "Garabatos" Hacienda, located in the Municipality of Atotonilco El Alto, Jalisco, marking a transcendental milestone in the history of the Galindo-Franco family and the tequila industry.

This event signified the orientation of the Galindo family toward agave cultivation and artisanal tequila production. Jesús Galindo Franco, heir to this century-old tradition, diligently continued the family legacy, initiating Tequila Galindo S.A. de C.V., founded by the Galindo family.

The company was acquired by Mr. Jorge Casillas Castellanos, a distinguished businessman originally from Capilla de Guadalupe, Jalisco, a visionary and passionate individual within the tequila industry. During his management, the company experienced notable growth at both national and international levels, generating quality employment and fostering healthy competition. This leadership led to the emergence of a new culture surrounding the consumption of this emblematic spirit, which represents an essential part of Mexican culture.

Mr. Jorge always maintained a clear and determined vision of elevating tequila's global presence, promoting it as an internationally renowned beverage for everyone to enjoy, always taking pride in being Mexican.

Mrs. Martha has worked tirelessly to keep alive the tradition of more than 150 years represented by Casa Galindo, not only as a brand but as a family, an experience, and a tequila tradition.
