There are two mayor agave growing regions for tequila, the highlands (Los Altos) and the tequila valley at 2,300 meters above sea level. For years producers and consumers have been debating which agave produces the best tequila? One thing is for certain, that the rich red soil from the highlands is very porous and the rain water filters right-through, leaving these agaves extremely stress for survival. Highland agave yields the highest grades of sugar content. There is a popular claim that the highlands rich soil produces a sweeter, more citrus, and fruitier-tasting profile. PUNTAGAVE Tequila is produced with highlands grown agave in the town of Jesus Maria Jalisco.
Tasing Notes: Herbaceous highland-agave, new rain water, ripe-agave. Perfect to prepare your palate for the more powerful idiosyncratic agave spirit varietals.
