In 1922, Don Jose Maria Banuelos created the perfect recipe for a bold highland tequila. The recipe was developed in Arandas, a community in the Los Altos region of Jalisco. It is here, in Arandas, that Tequila Cazadores® is still made. Our name, Cazadores, translates to the hunters, to symbolize Don Jose's quest for the perfect recipe. Legend has it that as Don Jose crafted the tequila, he saw a stag standing bravely in his agave fields. The prideful beauty of the stag struck a nerve with him—it was the perfect symbol for his new recipe. It is from this recipe that a community was born – an ecosystem of tequila that powers the town of Arandas, Jalisco. From the jimadores in the field to the taquerias who feed the bottlers after a long day's work—all of the people in Los Altos play a valuable role creating our high quality, 100% agave tequila for the world.
