Arette
Arette Tequila is a true embodiment of heritage, tradition, and craftsmanship—produced by the renowned Orendain family, one of the founding families of tequila. Hailing from the legendary town of Tequila in Jalisco, Mexico, Arette is distilled at the historic El Llano Distillery, which has been crafting tequila since the early 1900s. The brand itself was launched in 1986 and named after the Mexican horse "Arette," which won Olympic medals and became a symbol of national pride. Just like its namesake, Arette represents strength, elegance, and authenticity.
Made from 100% Blue Weber agave grown in the rich volcanic soils surrounding Tequila, Arette is committed to quality and sustainability. The agave is slow-cooked in traditional stone ovens, naturally fermented, and double-distilled in copper stills to preserve its rich, earthy character. Each expression—from the vibrant, peppery Blanco to the mellow, oak-kissed Añejo—is meticulously crafted to showcase the true essence of agave, with a distinctively clean and traditional profile.
What sets Arette apart is its deep respect for the roots of tequila-making. It’s one of the few brands that still operate entirely out of the town of Tequila itself, maintaining the legacy and time-honored methods that define authentic Mexican spirits. Arette also offers an “Arte” line, highlighting artisanal, small-batch expressions for tequila purists and enthusiasts seeking elevated complexity.
Arette is more than a tequila—it’s a testament to generational pride and the enduring soul of Jalisco’s most iconic spirit. With every sip, it tells a story of legacy, craftsmanship, and unwavering dedication to the true art of tequila.
