‘Antiguo’, literally ‘antique’ in Spanish is a 100% agave reposado tequila. Developed in 1924, it was originally reserved for friends and family of the hacienda but was launched to the public in 1995 to celebrate Herradura’s 125th anniversary.

Antiguo de Herradura Reposado is aged four months in refill American casks. Its milder flavour and lighter colour is achieved by carbon filtration.
