Why Mission 1530
More than a bottle.
Yéyo is made in Arandas, Jalisco. The people, families and community surrounding our tequila are part of the Yéyo story.
Mission 1530 was created as a way to give something back. Only 534 bottles were released. Every bottle became part of something larger.
Together, the release raised $35,000 to support the transformation of a local school in Arandas.
The release
Mission 1530
Sold out
A limited Añejo aged 11 months in Colombian blackstrap molasses rum casks, then rested six months in a single 8-year Willett Family Estate bourbon barrel.
The rum cask brought notes of molasses, caramel and soft tropical fruit. The bourbon finish layered in oak, butterscotch, toasted nuts and cocoa, grounded in cooked agave.
The label was designed by Morgan Bullinger for the Mission 1530 collaboration, using watercolor palms and crayon-like textures to reflect learning, generosity and growth.
One release. No future release is planned.

The bottle was
only the beginning.
The 534 bottles are now in the hands of collectors and members of the Yéyo community. The $35,000 they helped raise is beginning a much longer story in Arandas. This is where we will document it.
The transformation
Watch the school transform.
This page will grow with the project. As work progresses, we’ll share photographs, milestones and updates from Arandas so the people who supported Mission 1530 can see the impact they helped create.
