I am from: Los Altos (The Highlands), Jalisco, Mexico
The Story: Encased in an iconic, hand-painted ceramic decanter that takes artisans eleven days to create, this legendary estate spirit is a benchmark producer in Los Altos—the rugged, sun-drenched highlands in the heart of Mexico’s tequila country. Jalisco is legendary because it holds the spirit's most prestigious heritage, thanks to its unique, ancient soils dominated by rich red clay. Constant warm days and cool nights blanket the highlands, locking in vibrant sweetness while the high-altitude terrain infuses the agave with an unforgettable sweet-meets-spice character. Patiently slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens and aged for an extensive 25 months in American white oak barrels, it captures an ultra-luxurious harmony of Mexican culture and time.
Why You'll Love Me: It balances refreshing fruitiness with an incredibly seductive, oak-driven edge. Masterfully integrated over years in the barrel, it bursts from the glass with lively aromas of warm caramel, orange marmalade, roasted hazelnut, and toasted oak. On the palate, it delivers a beautiful, silky full body that is instantly cut by a laser-beam core of nutmeg, clove, and cinnamon spice. It gracefully sweeps into a long, complex finish defined by a mouthwatering buttery sweetness, a touch of dark chocolate, and a signature hint of rich, lingering vanilla.
