Tequila is at least 2,000 years old, dating back to the Aztec Indians who produced a fermented juice of the agave for their ceremonial wine.
Rim glass with pink salt and sumac.
When the Spanish conquered the lands now known as Mexico, the Marquis of Altamira built the first large-scale distillery in the 1600s using blue agave. In 1974, the Mexican government declared the term ‘tequila’ as the intellectual property of Mexico. This made it illegal for any other state to produce and sell their own ‘tequila’. Tequila is made from the cooked and fermented juice of the agave, a succulent. The ripe pina from mature agave plants produce a superior tequila as it has more sugar and gives higher yields.
