Olmeca Altos Tequila Anejo

Internationally renowned British bartenders Henry Besant and Dre Masso were on a quest to create a tequila diverse enough for bartenders to use in cocktails, and excellent enough to compete with (and surpass!) high-end bottles when drinking neat. They teamed up with Jalisco native Jess Hernandez, who has spent seventeen years perfecting the art of tequila as Maestro at the Destilera Colonial de Jalisco in Los Altos. Hernandez manages every level of production, starting with 100% blue agave planted in ideal growing conditions at 2,100 meters above sea level in mineral-rich volcanic soil. After seven to eight years, the plants are finally ready to be hand-harvested by jimadors. Unlike grapes or wheat, agave plants take nearly a decade to mature, so the soil and growing conditions have a strong impact on the final product. Destilera Colonial de Jalisco employs an entirely full-time, multi-generational, team of jimadors who have passed down the art of agave harvesting for decades. After selecting only the best plants for processing, the agave is roasted in the distillery's own brick ovens for up to three days, before resting in order to retain as much juice as possible for the tequila. After relaxing for a bit, half of the agave is shredded and pressed via a roller mill, while the rest is crushed using a two-ton Tahona Stone. Tahona rolling is a 500-year old method used almost exclusively for the finest tequila. The agave juice ferments for 36 hours and is then distilled in small batches using copper stills. Olmeca Altos Tequila Aejo blends the vibrancy of tequila with the bourbon craft. After maturing in oak barrels for 18 months, the Aejo has a softer aroma, with notes of dried fruit and almonds. With woody notes, vanilla and chocolate flavors, it's a great cross over bottle for bourbon lovers that are looking to explore a bit more.
