History

Corazon Tequila

In 1896, Don Celso Plascencia had a dream. He was a humble working man born in the highlands of Jalisco. He worked the land, and as he traveled to and from the fields that belonged to other men, he promised that one day, his family would own their own estate and make their own tequila, the spirit of Mexico. He passed this dream onto his children along with the notion that hard work will make your visions come true. 100 years later, Don Celso’s grandson, Raul Plascencia, fulfilled the dream of his grandfather. An entrepreneur in Mexico, Raul saved his money and, investing with others, opened Destiladora San Nicolas in 1998.

Destiladora San Nicolas blends tradition with technology. They create tequila as it has been made for generations, using the best blue agave, the clearest water, and time. They bring that process into the 21st century with a state-of-the-art facility and modern standards. Don Celso’s dream to own his own land, tend his own fields, and make his own tequila is now a reality. Don Celso’s vision and heart is in Corazon Tequila.
