What Makes It Special
Sango is made by Spearhead Spirits using wild African agave and is crafted to bring African-grown agave to the world stage. It is tequila-style in use, but it is not legally tequila because it is made outside Mexico.
Sango is made by Spearhead Spirits, the premium African spirits company founded by Chris Frederick and Damola Timeyin. Their mission began with a simple question: why was every continent represented on back bars around the world except Africa?
Spearhead Spirits was built to put African-made spirits on menus, shelves, and home bars around the world. Sango carries that mission into agave, using African-grown Agave Americana and Agave Salmiana to create a tequila-style spirit with its own African identity.
