Product Details

100% Blue Weber Agave | Amatitán (Tequila Valley), Jalisco | 40% ABV

Herradura Plata Tequila is a traditionally crafted Blanco tequila produced in the Tequila Valley (El Valle) of Jalisco. Made from 100% Blue Weber agave, this expression is unique in that it is rested for 45 days in oak barrels before bottling—longer than most blancos—adding subtle smoothness while retaining fresh agave character.

Clean, approachable, and lightly rounded, Herradura Plata is ideal for neat sipping and premium cocktails.

Perfect for those who want a softer, more refined take on classic blanco tequila.

The Distillery

Produced by Casa Herradura (NOM 1119), Herradura is one of Mexico’s most historic tequila producers, founded in 1870.

Located in Amatitán in the Tequila Valley, Casa Herradura is known for:

  1. Estate-grown agave
  2. Traditional brick oven cooking
  3. Copper pot distillation
  4. Pioneering the Reposado category

Herradura remains a benchmark for traditional tequila with large-scale consistency.
