Premised in the volcanic valley of Amatitán, the authentic Herradura hacienda brims with home-grown Blue Weber Agave, the ingredient that makes up 100% of this barrel-aged silver tequila. Their authentic processes of preparation and distillation draw from the old ways of the jimadores (agave harvesters), still committing to the use of traditional equipment. Even though the majority of silver tequila never experiences the darkness of the barrel, this special thing is aged for 45 days in American White Oak, giving it both - an unconventional light amber hue and improved flavor quality. The typical agave profile is elevated with the support of a subtle oaky taste.
Distilled twice in alembic stills, barrel-aged, and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV), the increased smoothness and enriched aromas have secured them 31 notable awards, 9 of which were gold.

About Tequila Herradura
Dating back to 1870, Casa Herradura is located in Jalisco, Mexico ― the birthplace of tequila. The historic producer of the famous Mexican spirit has close ties with the history of tequila itself, having been the first to produce reposado and extra añejo expressions. Today, Casa Herradura crafts some of the finest estate-bottled tequilas in the region. Located in the small town of Amatitàn, they distill their spirits from mature blue Weber agaves. The piñas (hearts) of the plants are harvested and steamed in clay ovens for 26 hours. Then, they are milled, extracting their sugary juice. The juice or "mosto" is then left to ferment naturally in tanks, the natural airborne yeasts from the surrounding fruit trees turning the sugars into alcohol over a period of 4 days. Afterwards, the fermented juice is distilled twice in stainless steel pot stills, matured in American white oak, and bottled right there on the estate. Today, they offer a wide range of tequila, ranging from the unaged Silver to double-barreled and wonderfully mature extra añejo expressions.
Although tequila has developed a bad reputation, there's more to the spirit than just shots on a Saturday night.
This traditional Mexican drink origins in the state of Jalisco when according to a local legend, lightning struck an agave cactus before the Nahua tribe drank its warm nectar. Behold, tequila.
Legally, tequila has to be made of 51% of Blue agave around the Jalisco region in Mexico. There are different types of tequila according to age - from the youngest representatives, blanco, reposado, and añejo, to the oldest extra añejo.
The nose is inviting with some initial notes of agave giving way to vanilla and citrus. The palate reveals an exquisite mixture of fruity and wooden aromas with hints of sweet agave, citrus zest, basil, and juniper. The finish is beautifully smooth, ending on refreshing notes.
