Essential 1800 Tequila, often simply referred to as 1800 Tequila, was introduced in 1975 as a premium tequila brand under the Casa Cuervo umbrella, the oldest and one of the most respected tequila producers in Mexico. The brand is named after the year 1800, marking the year in which tequila was first aged in oak barrels, a tradition that continues to define the character of quality tequila. 1800 Tequila quickly gained recognition for its commitment to using 100% blue Weber agave, harvested at peak maturity to ensure a rich, authentic flavor. The brand is known for its distinctive trapezoidal bottle design and offers a range of products, from Blanco to Añejo, each reflecting the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship and the rich heritage of tequila production in Jalisco, Mexico. 1800 Tequila has become a staple in the premium tequila market, celebrated for its smoothness, complexity, and deep connection to Mexican tradition.
