Crafted in Mexico at La Alteña Distillery, this tequila embodies the spirit of Jalisco’s highlands with every pour. Bottled at 40.00% ABV, it delivers a clean yet complex profile that shines in classic cocktails or neat. The crisp minerality and gentle spice make it an ideal companion for fresh ceviche or smoky tacos al pastor, where its vibrant character elevates each bite without overpowering delicate flavors.Producer Information: La Alteña DistilleryLa Alteña Distillery, nestled in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, was founded in 1937 by Don Felipe Camarena with a vision rooted deeply in the region’s rich agave-growing tradition. The distillery stands out for its commitment to traditional methods, including slow-cooking agave in brick ovens and using roller mills for extraction, which preserves the natural flavors unique to the Arandas terroir. La Alteña’s philosophy centers on honoring local heritage and sustainable practices, resulting in tequilas that reflect both place and process. Beyond their flagship El Tesoro tequila line, they also produce Tapatio and Villa Lobos tequilas, each expressing distinct profiles shaped by careful fermentation and copper pot distillation. Their focus remains firmly on crafting authentic highland tequilas that showcase Jalisco’s vibrant agricultural landscape.
