The traditional processing method, which includes stone oven cooking and natural fermentation, gives the Still Proof a surprising aromatic complexity for a young tequila. On the palate, vivid notes of fresh agave are appreciated, accompanied by a touch of citrus and a light spiciness that adds vigor to every sip. The structure is clean, with a persistent finish that invites further tastings.
This Tequila Blanco is splendidly suited both for refined tastings, for those who wish to explore the authentic character of a high-end Mexican distillate, and as a base for cocktails where the quality of the main ingredient truly makes a difference, such as a classic Margarita or a revisited Tom Collins.
