The name 1800 refers to the year of origin of Tequila. Around that time, Tequila was first made of the Agave in Mexico; to be precise, in the area around the city of Santiago de Tequila, in the province of Jalisco. It is a 100% Agave Tequila, distilled 2 times and made from the blue Weber Agave (Agave Tequilana). Most tequila in this bottling has matured 15 days on oak barrels. A small part of much older Tequila has been added to it, up to 12 years old. After filtering, all the colour disappears and one speaks of a Blanco, Silver or Plata Tequila.
