Herradura Tequila
Estate agave from Amatitán, poured in Commack since the beginning.
The story behind Herradura
Herradura has been made at the Hacienda San José del Refugio in Amatitán, Jalisco since Félix López registered the distillery in 1870. The name and the downward horseshoe came later, registered in 1928 after Aurelio López found a horseshoe in the agave fields and kept it for luck. Every drop is 100% Blue Weber agave, slow cooked in stone ovens for 26 hours, then fermented on wild airborne yeast with citrus trees ringing the vats.
Double distillation happens in copper pot stills, and the aged expressions rest in charred American white oak well past the legal minimums. Brown-Forman bought the brand in 2007, but bottling never left Amatitán. We have poured Herradura across this counter for decades, and the Reposado, the category the house pioneered in 1974, still moves fastest.
