In the tradition of embracing the power of two, Olmeca Altos®, the award-winning premium tequila made in Jalisco, Mexico partners with Pastry Chef and Chocolatier, Juan Gutierrez and professional choreographer and viral-dance creator, Brian Esperon to bring to life ‘Altos Juntos.’ This series literally translates to ‘Altos Together’ – because together is the best way to enjoy Altos with your partner. The activation debuts curated at-home date night ideas and a specialty cocktail kit to complete the evening.
Altos Juntos is a part of the brand’s larger integrated campaign, ‘It Takes Two to Altos,’ which celebrates those at-home loving moments and adventures best enjoyed with an Altos cocktail. This spring and summer, couples are encouraged to discover new ways to connect with each other and ditch the nightly glass of wine for a delicious, easy-to-mix Altos cocktail. Through the Altos Juntos program, Altos is refining and elevating new experiences for couples to enjoy together at-home.
“We know that now more than ever it’s the everyday moments that deserve the spotlight and our new ‘It Takes Two to Altos’ campaign will help to unlock real connections and everyday fun for couples, starting with our Altos Juntos program,” said Craig Johnson, Vice President of Marketing, Agave Portfolio at Pernod Ricard USA. “Altos Juntos pushes against everything that is mundane and with the help of our talented experts, Juan Gutierrez and Brian Esperon, we’re giving our consumers a chance to shake things up together.”
Beginning today and through August 31st, couples (must be 21+ in age) looking to shake up their nightly routine can choose between two complimentary 30-minute experiences hosted on altosjuntos.teachable.com led by accomplished experts:
- Chocolate Juntos: Test those skills in the kitchen with one of the hottest new chocolatiers on the culinary scene Juan Gutierrez, Chicago-based pastry chef and winner of Netflix’s “School of Chocolate” and Food Network’s “Chopped Sweets.” The interactive and educational chocolate truffle making class pairs the palate refreshing Olmeca Altos Sparkling Paloma, one of Mexico’s most popular cocktails, with three different easy-to-follow versions of decadent tequila-infused chocolate truffles: hot cocoa, caramel coconut and zesty lime margarita.
- Dancing Juntos: Practice makes perfect, and the pop dance class instructed by internet sensation and creator of the viral TikTok WAP dance, Brian Esperon prepares couples for a night out on the town – or dancing in the living room. The upbeat session, where Brian leads viewers through a high-energy 30-second dance routine, concludes with a step-by-step demonstration of how to mix the classic Olmeca Altos Home Margarita. The simple cocktail takes only minutes to prepare.
“Working with Altos on the Chocolate Juntos class was so much fun because I was able to share my passion for chocolate with so many people – and tequila and chocolate is one of those unexpected pairings yet makes so much sense when combined,” said Chef Juan Gutierrez. “Cooking allows people to discover new flavors and make special memories together at home. And nothing complements cooking at home with a loved one more than an Altos cocktail.”
“Dancing is a true passion of mine and has always been a way for me to express myself and connect with my community, near and far, virtually and IRL,” said Choreographer Brian Esperon. “Partnering with Altos to teach the dance class allows me to share my passion with the world and bring people closer together through the art of dance. And the cocktail part is a fun touch, too! Dancing in your living room with your partner or even with a best friend is an amazing way to connect and make memories together.”
To complement the evening, limited-edition Altos Juntos cocktail kits are available for purchase, so that couples can follow along with the hosts and cheers to the at-home occasion. Each cocktail kit includes a bottle of Olmeca Altos Plata, enough ingredients to create the two Altos cocktails featured in the experiences, the Olmeca Altos Sparkling Paloma and Olmeca Altos Home Margarita. Kits are available for purchase exclusively through ReserveBar for SRP $75 + shipping until June 30, 2022.
