Herradura’s story began well before tequila gained global recognition in the town of Amatitán, Jalisco. Though officially founded in 1870, tequila had been made on the same estate for decades. The name –Spanish for horseshoe –was inspired by a lucky charm found on the grounds, a fitting emblem for a producer that would weather revolution, prohibition, and industrial change.
Herradura Plata Tequila
£45.75
(£65.36 per litre)
The Plata spends 40 days in American oak – just enough time to let the flavours marry and showcase that bright, vegetal agave character. You can expect notes of fresh herbs, wet stone and a gentle, earthy honey. It's a clean style that works well in a Paloma.

Herradura Reposado Tequila
£51.50
(£73.57 per litre)
Aged for 11 months in American oak – well beyond the minimum for a reposado – this shows warm, spiced agave on the nose with touches of anise and dried fruit. The palate adds roasted nuts and buttery oak, finishing with vanilla custard.

Herradura Anejo Tequila

This anejo displays notes of toasted bread, caramelised nuts and spiced orange on the nose, with hints of tobacco and anisette in the background. Aged for 25 months, this is a tequila with real depth and weight, that continues to let the agave shine through its oak.
