History
Casa Dragones was founded in 2009 by Bertha González Nieves, the first woman to be certified as a Maestra Tequilera, and Robert Pittman, a media entrepreneur. The brand was named after the Dragones, an elite cavalry that led one of the movements that sparked the Mexican War of Independence.
Production
Casa Dragones Tequila is produced in the Tequila region of Mexico, using traditional methods combined with modern technology. The production process involves the careful selection of agave plants, which are harvested by hand. The agave is then slow-roasted in traditional ovens, and the juice is extracted and fermented.
