The Azunia Blanco Organic Tequila is an un-aged tequila made from 100% USDA-certified organic Weber Blue Agave. The agave is grown in the Tequila Valley of Jalisco, Mexico. Azunia prides itself on its traditional production methods and commitment to organic and sustainable practices.
Production Process:
- Agave Sourcing: 100% organic Weber Blue Agave harvested by hand from their dedicated fields in the Tequila Valley.
- Cooking: The piñas (agave hearts) are roasted for approximately 36 hours in traditional clay hornos (ovens).
- Extraction: The cooked agave is crushed using a roller mill to extract the juice.
- Fermentation: The juice is fermented naturally in open-air vats using wild-borne yeast, a process that can take 5-7 days. No commercial yeasts or accelerators are used.
- Distillation: The fermented liquid is double-distilled in stainless steel pot stills. The “heads” and “tails” (undesirable parts of the distillate) are cut and discarded during the second distillation.
- Water Source: Deep well water, naturally filtered through volcanic rock from their property, is used.
- Filtration: The tequila undergoes charcoal filtration.
- Aging: As a Blanco tequila, it is un-aged and bottled shortly after distillation.
Tasting Notes:
- Appearance: Clear and bright, often described as having a brilliant clarity.
- Nose: Clean and fresh with prominent notes of cooked agave. Hints of citrus (lemon, lime), subtle floral undertones, and a touch of pepper are often present. Some also detect mineral or earthy notes.
- Palate: Crisp and smooth with a vibrant agave flavor. The citrus notes from the aroma carry through to the palate, accompanied by a subtle peppery spice. Some reviewers note a slight sweetness and herbal nuances.
- Finish: Clean and refreshing with a gentle sweetness and lingering citrus and light pepper notes.
Overall Impression:
Azunia Blanco Organic Tequila is generally considered a smooth, clean, and authentic expression of tequila. The organic agave and traditional production methods aim to highlight the natural flavors of the plant. It’s a versatile tequila that can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks, and it serves as a high-quality base for premium cocktails like margaritas. Many reviewers appreciate its smoothness and lack of harshness for a blanco tequila.
