About this bottle
Made from 100% blue Weber agave cultivated in Guanajuato's southern Los Altos region of Jalisco, this additive-free Añejo tequila is produced at Plantaciones Tequilana, S.P.R. de R.L. de C.V. (NOM 1635). The agave undergoes cooking in brick ovens, extraction via Tahona, and fermentation without fibers in open-air stainless steel tanks with natural yeasts, followed by double distillation in stainless steel tanks with copper coils. This particular expression matures for a minimum of 12 months in American oak ex-bourbon barrels.

This tequila is very smooth. I prefer to drink this straight. It feels like you can truly distinguish the difference between the tahana method and current techniques. It holds up well compared to the Carmesi anejo.
Excellent additive-free tequila, pure and fragrant, though for an Añejo, it seemed to miss depth and complexity.
