The product is made by the extraction of fermented and distilled mark of blue agave, as well as added sugar. During the production process, 7-8 years old blue agaves are selected then transported to the distillery where they are cut into small pieces. The pieces are then cooked in the oven for 24 hours – a traditional method that has been used for more than 500 years. Thereafter, the agaves are crushed so they receive the marrow which Olmeca is produced.
Olmeca was founded in 1967 and is currently being distributed to 80 countries all over the world.
