Alipus



craft distillers

Founded in 1998, by Los Danzantes to provide a market for small family distilleries, ALIPUS is a deep commitment to keeping age-old artisanal methods alive by providing a livelihood for a way of
working, and a way of life, that are danger of disappearing – forever – amid the changes created by
the powerful, forced, and rapid transition to the modern world.
