United States Tequila Market Growth Factors
United States Tequila Market growth is being driven by the premiumization trend and the rising popularity of artisanal and craft spirits. As consumers become more knowledgeable about tequila production processes, demand for 100% agave tequila—particularly aged varieties—has surged. For example, in August 2024, Humano introduced Joven, Blanco, Añejo, and Reposado tequilas to meet this growing preference. Increasing disposable incomes and a stronger desire for high-quality, authentic, and unique gastronomic experiences are further fueling demand for premium and craft tequila products, supporting the continued expansion of the United States Tequila Market.
Fortified by the consumers' growing interest within low calorie, natural, clean-label beverages and wellness, the natural production methods (with few additives) of tequila, particularly the demand for 100% agave tequila, have grown among younger generations and wellness-focused customers. California has built a base of over 400 acres of agave for this purpose. The market is helped by consumer demand for a more natural lifestyle and the trend to choose tequila over other spirit beverages.
In the United States, use of tequila in cocktails also has furthered tequila consumption. The margarita is the most common of these cocktails after the Tequila Sour or Tequila Fizz and then the Paloma. Proximo Spirits is the second-largest tequila seller in the U.S. Sales increased 7.4% from the prior year in Q1 2024. This growth resulted from the increasing trend of mixologists and bartenders using ultramodern premium tequila in cocktails. Sustainability initiatives for example biodegradable or recyclable packaging and renewable energy could influence consumers' purchasing decisions also particularly among millennials and Generation Z consumers. In August 2024, DE-NADA Tequila implemented more sustainable packaging in order to maintain its carbon-neutral certification.
