About Nodeo

Nodeo is a classic style of Tequila in every sense but made in Zacatecas, just outside the denomination of origin regulated by the Consejo Regulador de Tequila. The Bañuelos family has been distilling Tequiliana since the 1970s, well before the DO was created. It is traditionally distilled, tasting like the Tequila of yesteryear prior to the industrialized farming and production that is common in Tequila today. In addition to the declassified Tequila, the Bañuelos family also makes a Mexican coffee spirits and a coconut spirit, both of which are made from a base of Blue Weber distillate and macerated with 100% Mexican ingredients.
