Jon Wolfe Celebrates National Tequila Day by Sharing Three Spectacular Juan Lobo Tequila Recipes

Writer's picture: Mary AnnMary Ann

"The name, Juan Lobo Tequila, was birthed over eight years ago. My south Texas fans affectionately gave me that nickname, Juan Lobo, and it kind of became a bit of its own persona. As my affinity for tequila grew over the years, I decided to launch a passion project. I began working on my own tequila brand a little over three years ago now, and it just launched last July in Texas. It’s now available across Central and South Texas, and as of last week, it’s available on a national level with our newest online retail partner, Great American Craft Spirits. It’s 100% blue agave tequila sourced from the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. We have three expressions: Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo… it's delicious stuff!
