The Valley of Tequila
Agave Azul Tequilana Weber, the agaves used for Tequila, can only be grown in the states of Jalisco, Michoacan, Nayarit, Guanajuato or Tamaulipas. Spirits from agaves grown in any other region cannot be called tequila. The agaves for Casa Dragones Tequila are hand-harvested in The Valley of Tequila, in Jalisco, in the rich agricultural lands of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. Here, the soil is semi-arid and semi-humid, ideal for the harvest of our sweet agave plants.
Appellation of Origin
Tequila’s history and identity is as rich and protected as that of Champagne, Cognac or Bordeaux. Receiving it’s appellation of origin in 1978, Tequila can only be made using Agave Azul Tequilana Weber according to the Tequila Regulatory Council (CRT), the institution in charge of protecting the industry. The (CRT) ensures that the Tequila standards set by the Mexican government’s Ministry of Economy are met at all times.
