Herradura is one of my favorite tequilas—it's a great product for sipping and cocktails but isn't going to kill your budget. While I am passionate about ancestral and more craft-focused products from the perspective of being an agave spirits collector and contour, Herradura serves wonderfully as a product that can be found virtually everywhere and at a great price.
