Curado Cupreata Tequila Blanco (750 ml)

Description

Curado is created by using a blanco Tequila from the Highlands of Jalisco as a canvas, then we infuse the liquid with pieces of cooked Agave. At first the infusions only used Blue Agave from the state of Jalisco, but the project soon evolved to include other varieties of Agave from other regions of Mexico. We want to build bridges, not walls.

Curado Cupreata begins as Tequila Ocho Blanco and then undergoes a 5 day infusion process where we steep roasted Cupreata, a Mezcal Agave plant from the state of Michoacan, into the Blanco Tequila giving the final product a golden hue.
