The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1795 by José Antonio de Cuervo after receiving the first official concession to produce tequila, the brand has remained a family-owned legacy for over two centuries. Today, it stands as the global pioneer of tequila, maintaining traditional methods alongside state-of-the-art quality controls.

How it is made

Crafted at La Rojeña, the oldest active distillery in Latin America, using traditional brick ovens to cook the agave hearts. This tequila is aged in charred American oak barrels for at least 12 months to achieve its rich, dark complexity.

From Jalisco, Mexico
