Luxurious Highland tequila finished in French Sauternes wine casks

The story behind it

The maker

Launched in 2009, Deleon was created to redefine luxury tequila by marrying traditional Mexican craftsmanship with French wine-making cask expertise. In 2014, the brand gained global prominence through a joint partnership between business mogul Sean Combs and British spirits giant Diageo.

How it is made

Deleon Tequila is produced at the high-altitude distillery in the Los Altos region of Jalisco, where mineral-rich clay soils impart a naturally sweet profile to the agave. The Añejo is aged for over a year in bold American oak, then meticulously finished in French Sauternes wine casks.
