Tequila

Tequila is rooted in Mexico, with Jalisco at the heart of its production and home to the historic town of Tequila. The spirit can also be produced in designated areas of Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit and Tamaulipas, where climate, altitude and volcanic soils influence the character of blue agave. Jalisco’s highlands are known for cooler temperatures and reddish soils, producing agave with a sweeter, fruit-forward character, while the lowlands around Tequila offer warmer conditions and darker volcanic soils, often associated with earthier, more herbal notes. Together, these regions define the distinctive character of authentic Mexican tequila.
