About the Company:


Wild Common is on a mission to share additive-free tequila and mezcal that honor tradition, community, and the land. We're a forward-thinking agave spirits company whose products consistently rate in the top 0.5% of tequilas on the planet. Over cranked flavors and aromas, transparency, authenticity and honesty are what you'll find along with a hospitality-based mindset around every interaction with distributors, accounts, and consumers.


As a National Geographic Photographer, former Exum Mountain Guide, and athlete, founder Andy Bardon acutely understands that what we put into our bodies and out into the world matters.
