Discover the only castle in the world devoted entirely to Tequila

March, 2023

You might not think that there are many castles in Mexico, but there are seven of them, and one of them is a very special one – Castillo de Tequila, in the state of Jalisco, is the only castle in the world devoted entirely to the production of Tequila, one of Mexico’s best known exports! Located just 40 minutes away from Guadalajara in the Valles region of Jalisco, the castle is home to the distilleries of such tequila brands as Adictivo Tequila, Tierra Sagrada, and Lote Maestro.

Having opened its doors to the public at the end of 2021, Castillo de Tequila’s expansion plans for the future include a hotel, restaurant, and convention center. For now, it has established itself as an unmissable stop in the famous Ruta del Tequila (Tequila Route). Tequila enthusiasts who stop here will be able to embark on a guided 45 minute tour of the facilities, and taste three of the house tequilas.

If you come to Jalisco in search of the finest tequilas, you’ll be hard pressed to find a more stunning location. Sipping a world-class tequila while enjoying the sixteenth century architecture of this authentic castle, all while surrounded by the vast landscapes of Jalisco with its abundance of agave plants (the plant from which tequila is distilled) — it doesn’t get much better!
