Us

We are a Baja California-based craft distillery dedicated to crafting corn-based spirits using locally sourced, top-quality ingredients, carefully bottled at our distillery in Ensenada.

Destilería Revés was born in 2018, inspired by our experience in winemaking and our passion for spirits. One afternoon enjoying whiskey and watching the sunset over the Pacific Ocean in Ensenada, we were surprised by the absence of spirits made in Mexico, beyond tequila. In particular, we noticed the lack of options based on corn, such a fundamental ingredient in Mexican culinary culture.

Why Revés? Our name is a play on words that unites our founding families, Backhoff and Bianca. “Back” and “Mano” combine to form “Backhand” in English, which translates to “Backhand” in Spanish. Voilà!
