El Tequileo was launched 1st January 1959 by Jorge Salles Cuervo. He came from a family already connected to the tequila industry and had himself since 1941, producing tequila for Casa Cuervo at his two distilleries ‘La Guarrea’ and ‘La Regional’, both located in the town of Tequila. Today El Tequileo has its own agave fields in the highlands of Jalisco, mainly close to the towns of Atotonilco & Tototlan. Once harvested, the agaves are transported to La Guarrea, the more modern of the company’s two distilleries, where they are cooked in autoclaves. (La Regional distillery is now mostly used as a compost plant.) El Tequileo tequilas are doubled distilled in copper pot stills and bottled by a plant in Guadalajara.
