Brown‑Forman Corporation announced plans in May to expand its Casa Herradura tequila distillery in Jalisco, Mexico. The approximate $200 million investment will allow the company to meet the increasing global demand for its premium tequilas, a news release stated. Construction is expected to begin in July 2023. Casa Herradura is one of Mexico’s most historic tequila producers, hand harvesting, producing and estate bottling fine tequilas from the small town of Amatitán, Jalisco since 1870. Brown‑Forman acquired Casa Herradura in 2007. The first phase will expand its water recycling and treatment plant, followed by capacity for distilling, bottling, maturation and processing, designed to build upon Casa Herradura’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
