What is agave? This is a plant from the mountains of the state of Jalisco. A hot climate suits him. Agave grows at an altitude of 2000-2500 meters above sea level. Blossoms in the 6-15 year of life. After double distillation, blue agave is incorporated into Camino tequila.
The Mexican government rated the drink and awarded it the title of Grand Tequila. Now the authorities themselves monitor the quality of the product and choose a suitable place for growing agave. This is the first drink that is so carefully controlled by the government.

Camino Real translates as Royal Road. In the XVI century, the inhabitants of Italy built the "Royal Road of Inland", similar to the Silk Road. This process has been a long one. Construction dragged on for as much as 80 years. But the path length was 2600 km. The journey along this road lasted a couple of months, and the merchants took flasks of water and alcohol on the road. The latter was added to the cleansing fluid and washed his wounds. The capacity was made from a gourd, it was dried and tied with a rope. That's where the design of unusual bottles came from.
