A TALE OF TWO TASTEMAKERS

IN PURSUIT OF PERFECTION

A PARTNERSHIP LONG IN THE MAKING

Juan Beckmann leads the most awarded tequila company in the world. His family has produced tequila from the same agave fields for 11 generations. He’s a natural partner for Kevin Hart, a tequila connoisseur known for his love for his family and community. They’re setting a new standard for tequila. And they’re sharing their successes far and wide.

BACK

Fueling Success

Every purchase of Gran Coramino helps put resources in the hands of aspiring entrepreneurs from under-represented groups in the U.S. and Mexico, in continuation of our founders’ missions to give back to their communities. We donate $1 for every bottle of Gran Coramino we sell to support the limitless potential of new business people and their communities.

Supporting Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses

Bringing big dreams to life is hard work. That’s why we’re proud to team up with two exceptional nonprofit and foundation partners, Local Initiatives Support Corporation LISC and The Beckmann Foundation, to help support small businesses and entrepreneurs throughout the U.S. and Tequila, Mexico. With funding from our $1 per-bottle giveback program, we aim to provide critical financial resources and learning opportunities to Black and Latinx small business owners and entrepreneurs, communities that have historically been excluded from opportunities and lacked access to resources.

Launched in November 2022 and co-designed with LISC, 50 eligible small business owners from around the U.S. were selected as inaugural grantees for the LISC- led Coramino Fund.

Of the 2023 businesses selected, 50% are Black-owned, 36% are Latinx-owned, and 14% are Black and Latinx owned. 68% of the 2023 Coramino Fund grantees are women-owned businesses.

As a part of the Coramino Fund program, each grantee business will receive a $10,000 cash grant along with access to LISC small business resources, tools, and learning opportunities to support their business operations and growth.
