About Us
Cannabis for a better life
We are committed to staying at the forefront of innovation and providing our customers with the best possible products.
Rooted in the heart of the Inland Empire, we are a proud, minority owned and family owned, bottle shop that’s redefining the craft of spirits, one pour at a time. Our story is one of resilience, heritage, and fusion—born from the vibrant culture of Southern California and inspired by the entrepreneurial spirit and the American Dream.
At Bleu, we specialize in the extraordinary—offering an exclusive collection of rare, allocated, and small-batch tequilas and bourbons for the true connoisseur. From single-barrel bourbons with deep complexity to extra añejo tequilas crafted with heritage and precision, every bottle in our selection tells a story of tradition, terroir, and time. Whether you’re building a distinguished collection or seeking a one-of-a-kind gift, our expert team provides personalized service and insight to elevate your experience.
At our core, we believe in quality, culture, and community. We curate an elevated selection of craft beer, artisanal agaves, bold bourbons, elegant wines, ready-to-drink cocktails, and hand-rolled cigars—each chosen with intention and care. Every bottle on our shelves tells a story, from small-batch distillers in Jalisco to family-run breweries in California, reflecting a passion for excellence and authenticity. We value our brands not just as products, but as promises—symbols of quality, reliability, and innovation.
