Accountant

Company Information:

Launched in early 2020, Teremana Tequila is an ultra-premium, small-batch tequila founded by Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. It is crafted at Destileria Teremana de Agave in the highest peaks of the Jalisco highland mountains with three expressions: Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo. Made from 100% fully mature Blue Weber Agave slow roasted in small traditional brick ovens and distilled in handmade copper pot stills, Teremana is one of the most awarded tequila brands in the world. Teremana has a simple goal; to create a high-quality, responsibly sourced tequila that is accessible by everyone to enjoy. To date, Teremana is one of the fastest-growing spirits brands in the world, reaching almost a million 9L cases sold in the rolling 12 months, faster than any other spirits brand in history.

Teremana loosely translates as ‘spirit of the earth’. The Latin word ‘terra’ meaning earth, and the Polynesian word ‘mana’, meaning spirit. Teremana stands for taking care of what and whom we love. From taking care of the land where we source our agave, to the painstaking process of creating our tequila, to the people we work and spend time with.
