Beginning in Tequila, Mexico over 200 years ago Jose Antonio de Cuervo acquired land located in the rich lava fields of the Tequila volcano from the king of Spain. His purpose was to cultivate the sacred plant indigenous to those mineral-rich lands - the Blue Agave - and to create a fine, unique spirit: Tequila Cuervo. Cuervo Especial Reposado is a golden-style joven tequila made from a blend of reposado (aged) and younger tequilas. Cuervo Gold’s story includes the leading role in the invention of The Margarita, and it is still the perfect tequila for that beloved cocktail. A true taste of Mexico.
