Founded in 1950 by Don Francisco Javier Sauza in Tequila, Jalisco, Hornitos was born out of a desire to showcase the true, bold flavors of agave. Don Francisco revolutionized the category by introducing innovative production methods and championing reposado tequila before it was widely recognized globally.
Hornitos Tequila is crafted at the historic Destilería La Perseverancia, where they utilize a unique extraction process before cooking the agave to capture the freshest flavors. This reposado expression is rested in large oak vats called pipones to ensure a gentle wood influence that does not overpower the spirit's herbal core.
