In 1761, La Familia Camarena co-founded the town of Arandas, Mexico. It’s now the epicenter of artisanal highland tequila production and home to the Most Awarded Tequila.*
They continue to uphold the legacy today, purchasing their own agave fields and blending traditional and modern techniques. Experienced Jimadors wait for 100% Blue Weber agave to reach maturity before harvesting select agaves when they achieve peak ripeness.
The rich volcanic soil and high altitude of the Arandas Highlands lead to slow-maturing but incredibly complex and flavorful agave. This distinct environment impacts the agave growth cycle and directly shapes the Tequila Camarena's bright, herbaceous flavor profile.
