Pancho Villa's Revolver, in Glass
The decanter is the point. Created for the 55th anniversary of Licores Veracruz and the 2010 centenary of the Mexican Revolution, this three-dimensionally registered glass revolver replicates the pistols of Pancho Villa's era — honoring the Villanueva-Barragán family, owners of Licores Veracruz. The design won the World Packaging Organization's Gold Medal plus national and international design prizes, and each bottle is hand-numbered. Inside is a genuine reposado: soft, honeyed, and oak-rested. Explore Hijos de Villa, shop reposado tequila, or browse all tequila.
Tasting Notes
Bright straw-yellow in the glass. The nose is soft and delicate — classic tequila, slightly sweet, with fresh agave and dried-fruit nuances. The palate shows agave flavor with honeyed sweetness and nutty tones from the oak rest: not bitter, not astringent, not acidic, with a characteristic reposado roundness.
How to Enjoy
Sip it neat to taste the reposado character, or keep the numbered pistol on the shelf as the collectible it is. At 200mL it is also a ready-made gift — the presentation case does the wrapping for you.
