BRAND STORY

In a world where the term “artisan” is often overused, Marcado 28 stands as a testament to true craftsmanship and collaboration. Our brand is the culmination of extraordinary talents coming together to create something genuinely special—a collection of premium tequilas that celebrate artistry in every form.

At the heart of Marcado 28 is a dedication to the art of tequila making, honed over 10 generations by a family deeply rooted in the rich tradition of agave cultivation. This isn’t just a business for them; it’s a way of life. Their expertise, passed down through generations, allows them to craft legendary tequila using agave they grow and harvest themselves. Their commitment to quality and authenticity ensures that every individually numbered bottle of Marcado 28 is a masterpiece, reflecting the care and tradition that only years of experience can provide.

But the artistry doesn’t stop there. Marcado 28 bottles are adorned with stunning tattoo art created by two renowned tattoo artists; Billy Bacca, & El_Sando.  Each design is culturally significant, telling stories that resonate with the personal and the profound. These aren’t just labels—they’re works of art that carry deep meaning, making each bottle a collector’s item as well as a premium spirit.

Adding to this artistic tapestry is Chef Michael Voltaggio, an artisan in his own right. Known for his innovative approach to food and culinary design, Michael brings a chef’s precision and creativity to the Marcado 28 team. His influence ensures that our tequila not only meets the highest standards of quality but also embodies the spirit of innovation and defiance.

Marcado, meaning “Marked,” is driven by the idea that each tattoo reveals a deeply personal narrative.  Derived in part from Biblical warning in Leviticus 19:28 “Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves.”  This connection underscores the brand’s embrace of individual expression and storytelling through tattoos and the spirit of defiance.
