This perfectly clear tequila has an herbal aroma, with a robust and fresh agave flavor. It also has hints of pepper and more herbs. It finishes with a refreshing wave of heat followed by balanced spice.
Like all things of quality, this tequila requires skill and dedication to rise above the ordinary. This skill and dedication is found at Destilería Gonzales, a family distillery with over four generations of history. It is also one of the most respected distilleries in all of Mexico.
With a red clay soil, the highlands of Jalisco provide a perfect environment for the cultivation of Weber Blue Agave. This agave is sweeter than normal, giving a fuller flavor to the tequila with a more floral note.
It can take anywhere from 7 to 15 years for the agave plant to mature, yet only the best ones are chosen to distill the tequila.
The process of distilling this flavorful tequila is an interesting and complicated one. First, the agave is cooked for 24 hours to increase the natural sugar content. Then, a juice is made from the heart of the agave called "honey water." This sweet honey-like water gives a fresh fruit flavor to the tequila.
The next step is the use of a yeast made by themselves, which is something that almost no distillery does. Typically, traditional yeast is used, but Destilería Gonzales uses a recipe developed by themselves over the years.
Afterwards, the Tequila Exótico Blanco 100% Blue Agave is distilled twice using traditional Mexican methods. This process is what provides the exotic flavor and rich quality of this premium tequila.
