Milagro Tequila was founded in 1998 with the purpose of creating a tequila that reflected
the bright, vibrant, artistic world of Mexico City. For this purpose, you sought out Pedro
Juarez, one of the most distinguished Master Distillers in Mexico. For Pedro, creating a
modern tequila meant taking full use of tradition - starting with the agave itself.
Pedro is a true expert in tequila production with a career over 35 years. was able to use
his artistry to create his pinnacle accomplishment – a 100% blue agave tequila that
encompasses the very definition of the freshest agave taste and exquisite smoothness.
The blue agave used to make Milagro is grown in the Jalisco highlands (Altos de Jalisco),
where the finest, sweetest blue agave in the world is cultivated. The highlands are known
for their red, mineral-rich soil, which allow the agave to grow large and full of sweet sugars.
The agave used by Milagro is harvested in the traditional manner by jimadors at the peak
of ripeness, at which point the agave are known to develop a better flavor of terroir (taste
and sense of place).
Milagro’s production process is specifically designed to highlight the bright, fresh flavor of
the agave. Milagro incorporates century-old methods of cooking agave - slow-roasting a
portion the agave piñas for an average cooking time of 36 hours using traditional brick
ovens.

After the agave piñas have been roasted, they are then shredded and pressed to extract
the sweet agave juice. This juice is then placed in stainless steel tanks for 72 hours where
it is fermented into alcohol. This is longer than most tequilas, which allows for more
development of flavors and aromas. Half science, half art, the fermentation process is
closely monitored by the team on-site.
Milagro is double distilled and instead of using one type of still like most tequila companies
do, Milagro uses two different types of stills: pot and column.
The first distillation is done in a traditional pot still which captures the fresh, vibrant
mouthwatering flavors of the agave plant. At this stage, the liquid still has rough edges,
contributing to why some tequilas are known as harsh.
The second still column distillation is used to “polish” the liquid by segmenting the finest
liquid cut which beautifully highlights these flavors resulting in Milagro’s exquisite
smoothness.
AGED TO PERFECTION
At this point, the liquid process is compete and the aging begins. The amount of time with
which the tequilas are aged determine what kind of tequila it will become. Milagro Silver is
unaged whereas Milagro Reposado and Añejo are aged in American oak barrels for 2 - 4
months and 12 - 14 months respectively.

The Milagro Select range is aged in American and French oak barrels. Unlike most Silver
tequilas, Milagro Select Silver is mellowed for 45 days, Milagro Select Reposado is rested
for 4 - 6 months and Milagro Select Añejo is aged for 18 - 24 months.
