About National Tequila Day
Tequila dates back to the mesoamerican times around 1000 BC, when indigenous Mexican tribes would often harvest and ferment agave. It was not until 16th Century that the tequila we know today was first produced in a region that was not officially known as Tequila until 1666.
The Mexican Senate ruled in 2018 that they would include a National Tequila Day on the third Saturday of March.
