José Cuervo Distillery

José Cuervo Distillery Review

Opened in 1795, the José Cuervo Distillery is the world's oldest tequila distillery. Every day, 150 tons of agave hearts are processed into 80,000 liters of tequila. Hard-hat tours are offered daily every hour from 10 to 4. The tours at noon are normally in English, but English-speakers can often be accommodated at other times. Basic tours, which includes sips of tequila along the way, cost $10. Tours including round-trip transportation are $25. They're a good deal, as they include three tequila tastings and a complimentary margarita. Call ahead.
