Show Notes

Acre Largo Tequila founders Seth & Zac Longaker interview! We talk NOM 1580, barrel-aged reposado (Westward Whiskey barrels), rosa tequila experiments, and their wild origin story. Acre Largo Tequila founders Seth & Zac Longaker join me for a hilarious, high-energy interview—and we go deep on how this brand was born from a totally unexpected path (big shoes ➝ big tequila). We talk NOM 1580, how they built relationships in Los Altos, why Acre Largo is a friends & family brand, and the barrel projects that got my attention—especially their Reposado aged in Westward Whiskey barrels and their Rosa-style experiments using Pinot/Chardonnay barrels. In this episode you’ll hear: ✅ The real origin story (Starbucks rooftop tequila meeting in Mexico!) ✅ Why they chose NOM 1580 and what makes that community special ✅ Barrel exchange program details (Westward Whiskey collaboration) ✅ Rosa + “sourdough” barrel-rested ideas (yes, really) ✅ Their approach: approachable price, authentic relationships, and FUN If you love tequila stories, production talk, and founder energy—this one’s for you.
