What makes Cachasol different from other tequila tours near Sayulita?

Cachasol offers a truly unique experience, not a packaged bus tour. Our award-winning tequila is made simply from Nayarit-grown agave with a distinctive fermentation and no additives, giving a brighter character you will not find elsewhere. Pair that with our estate-made raicilla and a farm-to-table restaurant, and you have a single working estate where you taste, eat, and experience agave from the ground up.

Products & Spirits

How is raicilla different from tequila?

Raicilla and tequila are both agave spirits from western Mexico, but they differ in origin and method. Our raicilla is estate-made on the Sayulita farm from locally grown agave, with a wilder, more herbaceous character. Our tequila is crafted at Hacienda de Oro under NOM 1522 from blue Weber agave.

Can I buy Cachasol spirits to take home, and can you ship them?

Yes. You can buy Cachasol spirits at the farm, or order them online or during your tour and have them shipped. For visitors from the United States, we ship directly to 48 states from within the US, so you can have bottles sent straight to your home rather than carrying them back. Browse our full range anytime in the online shop.
