Process & Profile

The agave plants endure 5 to 7 years of maturation at altitudes between 1,800 and 2,200 meters, ensuring a rich, concentrated flavor profile. Cooked in low-pressure autoclaves and crushed using a roller mill, the extracted juices are fermented with care in stainless steel tanks, infused with classical music to enhance the process. Double distillation in stainless steel pot stills ensures purity, and the tequila is aged for four months in a blend of American and French oak barrels, imparting a distinctive oak intensity.
