Dos Hombres is a mezcal company co-founded in 2019 by American actors Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, who played lead characters Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, respectively, on the 2008–2013 crime drama series Breaking Bad.[1] Dos Hombres means "two men" in Spanish.[2]

In June 2021, Constellation Brands took a minority stake in Dos Hombres.[3] The company made the investment through its venture capital group. Dos Hombres will continue to be independently owned and operated.[4]

The company produces artisanal mezcal which is distilled in small batches and does not use modern technology.[5][6] Dos Hombres is produced in San Luis del Río in Oaxaca, Mexico, and production is led by Gregorio Velasco.[7]
