Hornitos Tequila Aejo Black Barrel is a tequila of exceptional depth and complexity, characterized by an inviting and intricate blend of agave and woody notes, complemented by hints of vanilla and citrus. This distinctive Aejo expression showcases the artistry of tequila-making and pays homage to its origins in Tequila, Jalisco, Mexico. Hornitos Tequila is aptly named after the ‘little ovens’ traditionally used to roast agave, and it was first introduced to the world in 1950 by founder Don Francisco Javier Sauza as a tribute to Mexican Independence Day.
