From the classic hit song by the Champs to the last call at your local bar, Tequila is well-known for keeping the party going, so National Tequila Day on July 24th gives everyone a reason to celebrate. What better way to celebrate than by serving your guests three different bottles of award-winning, delicious Alacran Tequila. The company is committed to producing great-tasting, premium-quality agave products. Alacran was founded in 2010 in Mexico City and launched in the U.S. in 2011. Their products are sold at restaurants, hotels, bars and stores.
