Demetrio Tequila is made in Amatitan, Jalisco; the birthplace of Tequila. Years ago, a particularly resistant indigenous group lived in this area and crafted tequila, or “vino mezcal” as it was called back then. They continued production of their spirit in spite of the Spanish rule against making any drink that could compete with Spanish brandy. The oldest remains ever found of a tequila distillery are located in Amatitan dating back to the 17th century.
