IT'S ALL IN THE NAME
OR SHOULD WE SAY THE "NOM"
There are approximately 152 active distilleries that produce tequila. Each is assigned a 4-digit number called the Norma Oficial Mexicana (NOM) which is overseen by the Consejo Regulador del Tequila (CRT), a federal governing body that regulates and governs standards of the tequila industry. Assignment of a NOM number protects the integrity of the industry. Although there are over 3,000 different brands of tequila, El Tequileño is one of approximately ten brands that is exclusively produced at it’s own distillery. More importantly, no other tequila has ever been produced at our distillery. The NOM of our distillery is 1108.
