A Jaguar’s Gift

Legend has it that Angela, the brave inventor of our cherished drink, once found herself in the woods caring for her toddler grandmother, Angeles. These woods were part of the majestic Sierra del Tigre, a mountain range renowned for its powerful jaguars.

On that fateful day, Angela placed her baby on the forest floor while she gathered seasonal berries just a few meters away. As she picked the berries, she heard a noise and turned around to find a jaguar stalking her child, who was now positioned between her and the formidable feline. Leaving her baby behind was never an option — Angela had no choice but to advance towards the jaguar to reach her daughter.

Innately connected to nature, she took a deep breath, gathered her resolve, and calmly walked towards her child, never turning her back on the powerful jaguar. With unwavering courage, she picked up the baby and walked away, all while keeping the jaguar in her sight. The untamed creature spared their lives, ultimately allowing us to present you with this captivating spirited elixir — a gift from Angela, the jaguar, and the unifying spirit of nature that connects us all.

Let it serve as a reminder of the power of human resolve and our belief in the strength that arises from our unbreakable connection with the natural world.

Bandid Encounter

In 1913, our great-grandmother Angela and her sister had to defend their home against a fierce band of marauders. The sisters were at home with their children when a group of bandits, having learned that they were alone, attempted to storm their residence.

With unwavering resolve, the sisters bravely withstood the attack, repelling their foes in a brief but intense exchange of gunfire, despite the assailants’ relentless attempts to breach the fortified wooden entrance.

Just days later, the marauders returned with a devious plan, coating the door with tar and setting it ablaze. Undeterred, Angela and her sister fought back fiercely while their children carried water-filled vessels to extinguish the flames. Despite the escalating chaos, the sisters’ steadfast courage, coupled with the marauders’ inebriated state, eventually drove them away.

Asset 1

Foreseeing the inevitability of another raid, Angela took matters into her own hands. As the bandits rode away, she grabbed her fully loaded .30-30 rifle, mounted her horse, and pursued them. Using her keen tracking skills and sharpshooting expertise, she intercepted and strategically targeted her adversaries from a concealed position. Unprepared for Angela’s swift and decisive counterattack, the marauders struggled to counter her assault, falling one by one to her precise aim.

Through Angela’s remarkable perseverance, skill, and sheer determination, she ensured her family’s safety and preserved a treasured elixir, which we proudly share with you today. Experience the rich, intricate details and immersive story of this spirited saga.
