Héroe de León was created and produced to honor the late Mexican General Francisco Murguía.
Gen. Murguía, while fighting for
Mexico during the Revolution,
earned the nickname “Héroe de León
(Hero of León)" for his role
in the Battle of León in 1915
defeating Francisco “Pancho” Villa’s
much larger army.
Héroe de León was developed
by Gen. Murguía’s great-grandson,
Antonio Murguía, with the General’s
same passion for excellence and
commitment to their native Mexico
and its most famous export – Tequila.
