Distillery Information

Tequila brand El Tequileo was established in 1959 by Don Jorge Salles, who named it to honour the birthplace of the spirit. Just two years later La Capilla chose the Blanco as its preferred Tequila in Batanga cocktails, and by 1970 Salles son Juan Antonio joined the family business. Sadly, Don Salles passed in 2000, but the third generation also followed in his footsteps as Jorge Antonion Tony Salles joined the company in 2005, becoming master distiller in 2008.
