The José Cuervo range includes José Cuervo Reposado, Especial Silver, Reserva de la Familia and its range of super premium 100% blue agave tequilas namely the 1800 Silver and 1800 Añejo. The José Cuervo flavours varies from its product from the sweet, subtle agave with a hint of oak and vanilla of the José Cuervo Especial Reposado versus the full, mellow taste of rich oak, toasted almonds, apple, vanilla and cinnamon of the José Cuervo Reserva de la Familia.

How to drink Jose Cuervo tequila?

José Cuervo is advised to consumed in one ice cold shot as the chilled temperature locks in the bold Agave flavour (except the José Cuervo Reserva de la Familia that should not be kept in the freezer). That’s right! Keep your tequila in the freezer and only take it out when you want to drink it. It won’t freeze!

BTW why should you drink quality tequila? Same answer as why you drink all quality alcohols! You won’t get alcohol poisoning and you won’t wake up with a splitting hangover. Of course it can still happen if you consume excessively so always remember to drink responsibly!

About José Cuervo Tequila

José Cuervo’s unique visual identity is both the town and the drink which are named after the Tequila volcano that lies there. The volcano provides the mineral-rich soil in which the indigenous Blue Agave plant grows for a minimum of seven years, soaked from below by the volcanic minerals and from above by the Mexican sun. It is an unbroken 250 year story of one family’s passion, one community’s endeavor, and unique natural environment combining to make the very best tequila; hence its tagline, “The Tequila from Tequila”.
