THE TEQUILA
BUYER'S GUIDE.
MADE SIMPLE.
Everything you need to choose the right bulk tequila, understand the production route and get your product moving.
WHAT ARE
YOU MAKING?
Pick the route closest to your project. We will show you the tequila choices that normally make the most sense.
Commercial RTD
Margaritas, palomas, hard seltzers and high-volume drinks. A well-made 51% agave mixto is normally the best place to start.
VIEW THE RTD GUIDE 02Premium RTD
When you want more agave character, compare 51% mixto with higher agave specifications up to 99%.
COMPARE AGAVE LEVELS 03Bottled Spirit
Choose between an exportable mixto route for UK bottling or a 100% agave product bottled at origin in Mexico.
UNDERSTAND THE ROUTES 04Tequila Liqueur
Flavoured tequila liqueurs, cream liqueurs and other tequila-based products where the liquid must work with the full recipe.

THE RIGHT
TEQUILA.
Agave percentage and tequila class are separate choices. A tequila can be blanco, reposado or añejo while still being an exportable mixto.
51% vs High Agave Mixto
Why 51% is the right answer for many RTDs, and when a higher agave specification adds value.
READ GUIDE 02Bulk Blanco Tequila
The most versatile class for an approved UK production project. Blanco can be arranged as 51% agave mixto or a higher agave exportable specification for the named approved site.
READ GUIDE 03Bulk Reposado Tequila
Reposado can also be supplied in exportable mixto specifications when oak, warmth and a more premium profile are useful.
READ GUIDE 04Bulk Añejo Tequila
Añejo can also be supplied as exportable mixto. The key question is whether the aged character survives in the finished product.

Why it is not a legal general-stock route and what a project-specific high agave mixto export can offer instead.
