ANGEL TEQUILA
After slow cooking, patient fermentation and a strict selection that takes into account only the heart of each distillation, Tequila Angel Bendito Blanco is born, bottled directly after distillation to bring forth a premium distilled beverage, specially made for liquor enthusiasts and connoisseurs.

Tequila Angel Bendito Añejo is aged three years in American white oak barrels, which brings on an incomparable flavor, body, aroma and softness.

A perfect point of equilibrium between the Blanco and the Añejo is Tequila Angel Bendito Reposado, aged at least eleven months in American white oak barrels, much longer than the two months required for reposados by Mexican law. website: www.angelbendito.com email: info@angelstequila.com

CASA NOBLE TEQUILA

Casa Noble ultra premium tequila begins as carefully selected mature Blue Agave plants, which have met strict requirements for water and sugar content. The family that owns Casa Noble employs only traditional methods to slow-cook the rich agave pinas for 38 hours in stone ovens. Then, using only the core and hearts of the agaves, they extract their sweet nectar. The fermentation process is 100% natural, followed by a triple distillation. The result is a tequila so pure and full of agave flavor that it has elevated the concept of tequila to new levels around the world. Casa Noble is USDA Organic Certified.

TEQUILA CANICAS

The most well kept secret among super ultra premium tequilas is primed to become the most coveted bottle to locate. Why, you ask? Because Tequila Canicas is handcrafted drop by drop from 100% Blue Agave plants that are allowed to mature eight years before harvest. It’s triple distilled and poured in hand-blown glass bottles from the volcanic hills of Jalisco, Mexico. It truly has everything the micro tequila drinker is looking for and desires. This tequila is so exclusive it is probably one of the most difficult bottles of tequilas to find.

PAQUI TEQUILA

In the native Aztec tongue, PaQui means “to be happy”. PaQui captures the high-end tequila experience-the spirit of fun and bringing friends (fathers) together, celebrating a sense of adventure.

PaQui is handcrafted in small batches in the town of Tequila, Mexico where the master distiller uses an elaborate process called selective distillation. This separates the hear of the distillate and selects only those portions with superior aromas and flavors, leaving a very pure tequila of exceptional character and drinkability.

CORRIDO TEQUILA

Produced using Blue Agave grown in the volcanic soil of the Highlands region of Jalisco. This “Los Altos” agave is known for its higher sugar content. Providing the tequila drinker with unprecedented smoothness while maintaining distinct agave character.

While its Cristalino is not aged, the Reposado, Anejo and Extra Anejo Corrido Tequilas are aged in white oak barrels and then moved to a more exotic finishing barrel for a brief period to bring out the elegant yet complex flavors. All Tequila Corrido aged tequilas are single-barrel aged which is something one should take note of when considering a tequila.
