The distillery of Camino Real with its 70-year history of making tequila, is located in the district of Jalisco in the city of Tequila in Mexico. The agaves used in making Camino Real grow in fields at 2,000 metres above sea level, hence the name Camino, “high” in Spanish. The golden amber-like colour of Camino Real Gold Tequila results from the drink seasoning in oak barrels which adds a light bitterish-sweet subtone to the taste.
