Crafted in the Highlands of Jalisco state in Mexico, Gran Centenario offers five expressions of its award-winning tequila: Plata, Reposado, Anejo, Cristalino, Leyenda, and Gallardo. For the brand's 'Don't Be A Gringo' campaign, pop-up events in Chicago New York was recently hailed featuring the Rápido Gringo Test aimed at helping others 'Ungringo their Cinco' by testing them on Mexcican knowledge, pronunciation of Spanish words, and more.
