Cape Horn Tequila, founded by U.S. Navy veteran Taylor Grieger, announced the launch of its long-awaited Añejo tequila. 

This new addition to the brand’s lineup is aged 18 months and made from 100% Blue Weber Agave. The Añejo joins Cape Horn’s award-winning Blanco and Reposado offerings, all crafted to fund PTSD recovery programs for veterans and first responders.

Now available online and in 24 states, thanks to a strategic partnership with importer AIKO Brands, the Añejo is expected to further the brand’s national momentum while advancing its mission to support veterans with PTSD.

“From the beginning, our vision was to partner with people who believe in both craft and cause,” Michael Lonsinger, Co-founder of Cape Horn Tequila, said in a news release. “Our work with AIKO Brands has helped us bring that vision to life on shelves across the country.”

“We launched Cape Horn Tequila with one mission: to support the veterans who come home from service and continue fighting battles no one else can see,” Grieger, who founded both Cape Horn Tequila and its sister nonprofit, Skeleton Crew Adventures, said. “This Añejo isn’t just a spirit. It’s a symbol of what it means to endure, heal, and rise again.”

A Mission Distilled

After serving as a Navy rescue swimmer, Grieger embarked on a voyage around Cape Horn, considered the most dangerous sailing route in the world. His goal was to raise awareness for the hidden wounds of war: post-traumatic stress, depression, and suicide. 

That journey became the basis of the acclaimed documentary Hell or High Seas and laid the foundation for the brand.

Each bottle sold helps fund Skeleton Crew Adventures, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing free adventure therapy for veterans and first responders. Programs include guided offshore sailing expeditions, peer support networks, and community-based healing retreats, all designed to reconnect participants with nature, purpose, and each other.

Cape Horn Tequila Añejo is available at capehorntequila.com and at select retailers across 24 U.S. states.
