Rock Steady is our ethos
We find that the most inspiring spirits connect us to the earth, community and humanity. We believe the real flavors come from healthy soils. We believe genuine spirits reflect their provenance and terroir. We believe distilling is artistic pursuit. Pesticides, herbicides, and chemicals in general don’t belong in the ground, our bodies or in our spirits. We believe some of the best spirits spirits still haven’t been made and exploring new flavors and possibilities.
In our curation, we seek natural over commercial and honesty over marketing tactics. Great spirits takes time, which is interent to their quality. Our mission is to provide you with spirits that reflect the land and communities who produce them. Therefore we support small artisan producers from around the world by either importing their products directly to the United States or partnering with importers to distribute them in California.
Start stocking the best spirits this great wide world has to offer; the spirits will thank you.

Our Philosophy
We believe in flavor. We believe genuine spirits have terroir and reflect it. That where and how an agricultural product grows and how its fermented and distilled will contribute to its final flavor. That distilling is an artistic pursuit. That pesticides, herbicides and chemicals in general don't belong in the ground, our bodies or in our spirits. We are looking for natural over commercial and brutal honesty over marketing tactics. We believe that good spirits take time and it's inherent in their quality.
Our mission is to provide bars, restaurants and retailers with the highest quality spirits they can find while respectfully supporting the hard work that goes into making them.
Our Producers
We support small artisan producers from around the world by either importing them directly to the United States or partnering with importers and distributing them in California to bars, restaurants and retail shops. We are obsessed with spirits made from agave, certified mezcal or distilado de agave (uncertified).
