Cimarron

Cimarron is a tequila brand that honors the wild, untamed spirit of Mexico’s highlands. Produced by Master Distiller Enrique Fonseca at the legendary Tequileña Distillery in Atotonilco, Jalisco, Cimarron is crafted for purists—those who seek authenticity over gimmicks. Unaged and unapologetically honest, Cimarron Tequila has carved its place in the market with a commitment to tradition, transparency, and exceptional value.

Craftsmanship and Distillation

What sets Cimarron apart is its meticulous, additive-free production process. Made from 100% Blue Weber agave harvested at peak maturity, the tequila is cooked in traditional brick ovens and fermented naturally using wild yeasts. A slow, careful distillation ensures that the natural agave flavors aren’t lost, but rather enhanced. The result? A clean, vibrant spirit that represents the best of highland tequila—earthy, aromatic, and balanced.

Cimarron’s Blanco expression is bottled without aging, offering a clear glimpse into the heart of the agave. Meanwhile, their Reposado and Añejo expressions are rested in American oak barrels, allowing the spirit to develop complexity without overwhelming the bright agave core.

Aroma & Bouquet

Cimarron is celebrated for its bold yet elegant aromatics. The Blanco opens with fresh green agave, crushed peppercorn, citrus zest, and hints of mint. The Reposado adds a touch of warm vanilla, toasted oak, and butterscotch to the mix, while the Añejo layers in caramel, roasted nuts, and a whisper of tobacco. Each expression offers a beautifully structured nose that tells a story from the moment the bottle is opened.

Smoothness & Finish

Despite its unaged Blanco expression, Cimarron surprises with its silky texture and smooth finish. The spirit glides effortlessly over the palate, delivering bright citrus and herbal notes with a dry, peppery edge. A clean, slightly saline finish leaves the taste buds refreshed rather than fatigued—making it ideal for sipping neat or as a standout cocktail base. The aged expressions maintain this clarity, offering warmth and complexity without losing the crispness that defines the brand.

Awards and Recognition

Cimarron has quietly earned a cult following among bartenders and industry insiders. It consistently ranks as a top value pick in blind tastings and has been praised by tequila experts for its authenticity, quality, and versatility. Though not flashy with marketing, its credibility is rooted in what truly matters—taste, craftsmanship, and integrity.

Who Is It For?

Cimarron is for the discerning tequila drinker. Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast, a purist who drinks neat, or a spirits collector seeking high-quality tequila without the hype, Cimarron offers something rare: honest-to-the-core tequila made with purpose and passion. It’s not just a bottle—it’s a return to what tequila should be.
