生產於龍舌蘭的故鄉Jalisco，由墨西哥最古老的龍舌蘭酒廠Herradura，在1994年，推出了el Jimador這個新的品牌。同樣以100%龍舌蘭草為原料，遵循墨西哥龍舌蘭酒規範，金級希瑪竇龍舌蘭酒在橡木桶中陳年2個月，其精純的酒質與親民的價格，迅速成為墨西哥銷售第一的龍舌蘭品牌。
Jimador指的是墨西哥當地採集、挑選龍舌蘭的農工，仰賴他們長期累積的經驗才能挑出最適合製作Tequila的原料，一般只要原料中含51％以上的龍舌蘭即可標示為Tequila，但希瑪竇堅持100％以龍舌蘭為原料製作，絕對的濃、醇、香，至今已是墨西哥當地銷量第一的龍舌蘭。

It takes years to make it as a Jimador. We’re the master harvesters that give our all in the pursuit of the art of gathering the Weber blue agave that goes into our tequila. Heart and soul, that’s what it takes to get the name–and it wasn’t earned easily.
In the field we stand: a band of dedicated jimadores. Our coas at the ready, carefully harvesting every plant, knowing – by eye – which are ready and which should be left for tomorrow. Our passion, fused with that of the master distillers is what makes the difference. Grit, dedication and spirit go into every drop, and that’s why it stands alone.
The root of our spirit can be found in the sun-kissed soil of our historic hacienda. It’s here in Amatitán, Jalisco, that every drop of tequila we make begins its life. Here we learn, cultivate and perfect the skill it takes to make our world-famous spirit. No filler, no added colors, just 100% blue Weber agave tequila, crafted with 100% pure determination and honor.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SILVER, REPOSADO, AND AÑEJO?
It’s all about age.
Silver is youngest, Añejo is oldest, and Reposado falls between them. To make great-tasting Añejo, you must start with great-tasting Silver tequila. We begin with the freshest, newest and youngest tequila we make, Silver. It is crystal-clear and double-distilled: crisp, pure and buzzing with citrus notes. Añejo takes 12 months in American oak barrels to create the deep color and flavor of this award-winning tequila.
