Product Information

Founded in 1775, Corralejo distillery in the town of Pénjamo was one of the first Mexican estates to produce tequila commercially. Over the last 250 years their production methods have been refined whilst preserving the traditional skill to create the popular tequila.

Hacienda Corralejo is the birthplace of Don Miguel Hidalgo y Costillo, renowned for launching the Mexican War of Independence. It was the first estate in Mexico to produce tequila as a commercial venture, and as such, they are among only a chosen few tequila distilleries granted the right to produce tequila in a province other than Jalisco.

Corralejo tequila is exclusively made with 100% Blue Weber agave, hand- harvested from our fields in the state of Guanajuato.

Because the majority of agave they use is estate-grown, they are able to ensure the highest quality from the very beginning. Starting by selecting only stable and healthy shoots, or hijuelos, that are already 2-3 years old. Corralejo then plant them in a specialty soil blend that prevents imperfections common in the field.
