Borracho is more than a tequila — it’s a mindset. Born in Phoenix, Arizona, and crafted in Jalisco, Mexico, Borracho represents bold spirit, pure craftsmanship, and unshakable integrity. Our brand stands for doing things the right way — no shortcuts, no additives, no compromises. We believe in purity, tradition, and creating tequila that’s meant to be felt as much as it’s tasted.
Borracho was founded by longtime friends Tom and Troy — two Arizona bar owners who discovered the Casa Meza distillery during their travels in Jalisco. What began as a friendship with the Casa Meza family turned into a partnership built on heart and respect for craft. Every Borracho recipe was tested, refined, and approved by the team — ensuring that each bottle embodies the bold, clean flavor they envisioned from day one.
Every bottle of Borracho Tequila is proudly distilled and bottled at Casa Meza in the heart of Jalisco, Mexico, using traditional methods that honor generations of craftsmanship.
Our process begins with 100% Blue Agave, carefully harvested at peak maturity. The agave hearts (piñas) are slow-cooked, crushed, and naturally fermented before being double-distilled for exceptional smoothness. Borracho Blanco remains pure and additive-free, while our Espresso Cristalino undergoes an additional fine filtration process that delivers a crystal-clear appearance and silky finish.

Many believe quality tequila should “burn” or that it’s meant for shots. In truth, premium tequila — especially additive-free tequila like Borracho — is meant to be savored. Learn more on our blog, where we debunk myths and share what makes real tequila truly exceptional.
A tequila’s character depends on factors like the agave variety, terroir, harvest timing, fermentation, distillation methods, and barrel aging. At Borracho, we pay attention to every step — from Jalisco’s rich volcanic soil to Casa Meza’s traditional craftsmanship — ensuring unmatched depth and purity in every bottle.

Keep your bottle in a cool, dark place or a controlled environment. Always seal it tightly after opening. For optimal flavor, enjoy within a year to experience the tequila as it was bottled. Aged tequilas may continue to evolve with time.
