Often referred to as the "Gold Standard," Jose Cuervo Especial Gold is the world’s most popular tequila and a true industry icon.

Distilled at La Rojeña, the oldest active distillery in Latin America, it carries over 250 years of heritage in every drop. This convenient 50ml miniature is the perfect size for crafting a single legendary margarita, sampling the spirit's smooth character, or adding a golden touch to your travel kit or gift basket.
Tasting Notes
Jose Cuervo Gold is celebrated for its approachable, smooth profile and its signature balance of agave and oak.
- The Nose: Light and inviting with a sweet agave aroma. Subtle hints of caramel and vanilla emerge, rounded out by a faint, pleasant whisper of toasted oak.
- The Palate: Smooth and medium-bodied. The entry is sweet, featuring a distinctive cooked agave core layered with notes of butterscotch, honey, and warm spice.
- The Finish: Well-balanced, short, and clean. It leaves a soft, mellow trail of toasted oak and vanilla, making it exceptionally easy to sip or mix.
Key Features
- The "Margarita Original": Historically credited as the tequila used in the first-ever Margarita, it remains the top choice for the classic cocktail today.
- Artisanal Blending: By combining aged reposado with younger spirits, Cuervo achieves a complexity and amber hue typically reserved for more expensive bottles.
- Rich Terroir: Crafted from blue agave grown in the volcanic soil of the Tequila Volcano skirts, harvested by skilled Jimadores.
Serving Suggestions
The 50ml size is perfectly portioned for the Ultimate Margarita: simply combine this mini bottle with 1 oz of lime juice and 0.5 oz of agave nectar. It also serves as a smooth, classic shooter when paired with a slice of lime and a pinch of salt.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
