Bone Orchard Tequila debuts with three agave expressions

By AI, Created 5:18 PM UTC, May 18, 2026, /AGP/ – Bone Orchard Tequila has launched in Treasure Valley, bringing a premium tequila made in Jalisco to Idaho shelves. The brand rolls out Blanco, Reposado and Añejo expressions, with broader Idaho distribution planned through 2026.

Why it matters: - Bone Orchard Tequila adds a new premium tequila option to Idaho’s market. - The brand is positioned around authenticity, with production kept inside Mexico’s tequila appellation. - The launch gives Treasure Valley retailers an early look at a brand that plans wider Idaho distribution in 2026.

What happened: - Koenig Distillery launched Bone Orchard Tequila on May 18, 2026. - The brand is now available in Treasure Valley liquor stores. - Koenig Distillery says expanded distribution in Idaho State Liquor Stores is planned throughout 2026. - The tequila is distilled and bottled in Tequila, Jalisco. - The brand is inspired by Koenig Distillery’s Sunnyslope location in Caldwell, Idaho, overlooking the Owyhee Mountains.

The details: - Bone Orchard Tequila is made from 100% Blue Weber agave harvested at peak maturity. - Production stays within Mexico’s Denomination of Origin in Tequila, Jalisco. - Bone Orchard partnered with Casa Maestri to produce the tequila. - The brand name comes from old cowboy slang for a cemetery. - The company says the name is meant to honor fearless lives, hard-earned stories and traditions that endure. - The collection launches with three expressions: Blanco, Reposado and Añejo. - Blanco is unaged and bottled immediately after distillation. - Blanco is described as bright, crisp and clean, with notes of fresh agave, citrus zest and light pepper. - Reposado is aged in American oak barrels. - Reposado is described as having warm vanilla, soft caramel, honeyed oak and subtle spice. - Añejo is aged at least one year in charred oak barrels. - Añejo is described as deep amber, with caramel, toasted oak, vanilla and warm baking spice. - The expressions were hand-selected by an industry team that included Nick Boban of Craft Lounge and Dustan Bristol of Brick 29. - Koenig Distillery’s Tasting Room in Caldwell is open 12-5 p.m. every day. - More information is available on the company’s website.

Between the lines: - Bone Orchard is leaning on contrast: Mexican production and Idaho branding, tradition and modern positioning, rugged imagery and premium craft. - The use of Casa Maestri and a full Jalisco production chain signals an emphasis on authenticity rather than local bottling or blending. - The launch strategy starts locally, then builds toward broader state distribution, which can help establish the brand before a wider rollout.

What’s next: - Bone Orchard Tequila is expected to expand into Idaho State Liquor Stores during 2026. - The Caldwell tasting room gives the brand a direct channel for sampling and early customer feedback. - Further brand awareness will likely depend on how quickly the Treasure Valley launch converts into statewide traction.
