El Tequileño have something of a reputation for their mixto tequila, helped by it being the house pour at the famous La Capilla bar not far from the distillery, where Don Javier Delgado Corona mixed El Tequileño Blanco with Coke, a little salt and fresh lime to make his signature Batanga.

El Tequileño is distilled from 70% agave and 30% of a mix of brown cane sugar and granulated white sugar. It is aged for one month in oak.

El Tequileño was launched 1st January 1959 by Jorge Salles Cuervo. He came from a family already connected to the tequila industry and had himself since 1941, producing tequila for Casa Cuervo at his two distilleries 'La Guarreña' and 'La Regional', both located in the town of Tequila.

Today El Tequileño has its own agave fields in the highlands of Jalisco, mainly close to the towns of Atotonilco & Tototlan. Once harvested, the agaves are transported to La Guarreña, the more modern of the company's two distilleries, where they are cooked in autoclaves. (La Regional distillery is now mostly used as a compost plant.) El Tequileño tequilas are doubled distilled in copper pot stills and bottled by a plant in Guadalajara.
