WHAT IS
el Tequila?

It is a symbol of cultural identity deeply linked to Mexican history, tradition, and national pride. Tequila is a distilled beverage made from the fermentation and subsequent distillation of sugars from Agave tequilana Weber blue variety.

Both the cultivation of the agave and the Tequila production process must take place within the territory of the Appellation of Origin Tequila.

For a product to legally bear the name "Tequila", its production must strictly comply with the provisions of the Official Mexican Standard NOM-006-SCFI-2012, which regulates its production, bottling, and commercialization.
