AMATITENA TEQUILA ORIGEN BLANCO HIGH PROOF 750ML

Delving even deeper into the roots of tequila’s early production, Amatiteña ‘Origen’ offers an example of their historical, estate-grown tequila at a notably higher (and more traditional) ABV than their core blanco.

• Blanco tequila produced in Amatitán, Jalisco (NOM 1477)
• Maestro Tequilero Alberto Partida
• 100% Azul aka Blue Weber (Agave tequilana)
• Single estate agave (current batches are from the fields El Novillero and Las Rosas)
• Cooked in a traditional, mesquite-wood-fired stone oven (without steam)
• Milled using an automated tahona (traditional stone wheel mill)
• Fermented with fibers (bagasse) in open air wood tanks (tinas), using spring water & ambient yeast
• Distilled in historical copper pot stills from the 19^th century
• Prominent aromas of mesquite, burnt marshmallow, and lemon zest are bolstered on the palate by dried oregano, star anise, menthol, dried cherry, grilled pineapple, peanut shell, and fresh seaweed
