Producer Information: Jose Cuervo

Jose Cuervo, rooted in the town of Tequila in Jalisco, Mexico, traces its origins to 1758 when José Antonio de Cuervo received land from King Ferdinand VI of Spain to cultivate agave. The family began commercial tequila production in 1795 after securing the first official license from the Spanish Crown, establishing a legacy that intertwines with the region’s volcanic soil and blue agave fields. Jose Cuervo’s philosophy centers on traditional methods such as slow-cooking agave in stone ovens and using copper pot stills, which highlight both terroir and craftsmanship unique to Jalisco. Beyond their flagship tequilas, Jose Cuervo also produces ready-to-drink cocktails like Margarita Mixes and has expanded into other spirits through brands such as 1800 Tequila and Gran Centenario, further cementing their influence within Mexico’s distilled beverage category while maintaining a focus on authenticity and regional heritage.
