Caballito Cerrero Azul Blanco Agave Spirit

The Santa Rita Factory where Caballito Cerrero is produced was founded in 1873, is an example of what back then represented the advances of the Industrial Revolution and the efforts of Maximiano Hernández an enterprising and visionary man who built a real industrial facility located in Barranca de Tecuane, using both elements of modernity, as those that the ancestral experience and the chosen place provided. The location of Santa Rita is complex and is due to the proximity to the spring of natural mineral water from which it is supplied. Santa Rita, Patron of the impossible.

Santa Rita is a big rectangular nave with a total area of over three thousand square meters built on a tepetate stone table; one of its walls is stone carved and the other one is an aqueduct; it has seven meters cast iron French columns, rail beams and brick Catalan vaulted ceilings. It still has the remains of the original tahona, semi circularly carved in the stone, three brick ovens, a platform for stills also structured with cast iron beams and bolted suspenders, an internal transport system with rails and two cars manufactured by Krupp to move the cooked mezcal; as well as a steam engine.

The Santa Rita Factory is the same one in which now the descendants of Mr. Maximiano Hernández Orozco manufactured mezcal wine, tequila and currently Distillate of Agave, always under the highest quality principle of conservation.
