The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1950 by Don Francisco Javier Sauza in Jalisco, Mexico, Hornitos was born out of a desire to create a bolder, more flavorful tequila. The brand has been a pioneer in tequila production for decades, honoring traditional craft while pushing boundaries with innovative flavors.

How it is made

Crafted at the historic Sauza distillery in Jalisco, this modern spirit is made using a unique extraction process before being infused. The master distillers cook the agaves in autoclaves to ensure the raw sweetness of the agave is perfectly preserved.
