About this deal

So, with news of all this shadiness and artifice, you might be feeling a bit disheartened. A once guilt-free pleasure suddenly tugging on your conscience. The answer is not, of course, to stop enjoying tequila. Heaven forbid. But just to be maybe more mindful about what you’re tossing down your gullet. There are many types of tequila, but fortaleza tequila is definitely one of the best. It has a smooth, rich flavor that is perfect for sipping. This tequila is made from 100% blue agave, and it is aged for a minimum of two years in oak barrels. This gives the tequila its unique flavor and character. Fortaleza tequila is definitely a must-try for any tequila lover.

I was born and raised in Mexico, and my passion for food began at a young age. I come from a family of passionate cooks, and I learned early on that cooking is a great way to show your love for others. Rested for eight months before bottling, the result is a smooth tequila with notes of vanilla, oak, and roasted agave, and a rounded finish that’s easy to sip. Cimarron Reposado CimarronAged for eight months in American oak, this tequila has notes of vanilla, apple, and cinnamon. It’s delightful. Aromas of citrus, caramel, butter, cooked agave, and sage are the beginning of a pleasingly balanced and unique tasting experience. Casa Noble Reposado Casa Noble Casa Noble Reposado is a great fall sipper. We also love to use it in our riff on an old-fashioned, in which we use both tequila and rye as the base.

It's really smooth and doesn't have an overpowering sweetness which I think will work well neat and for fans of a less sweet drink. If you still haven’t got the yield required, or are keen to further commercialise the process, technically you can then dilute your tequila with another sugar-based spirit, so long as it doesn’t exceed 49% of the volume. You do then have to mark your product somewhere on the bottle as ‘mixtos’ (mixed), but it’s legal in the eyes of the CRT.La Gritona Reposado is lovely. A big reason: reposado is all they do. Plus, they’re a women-owned and operated small business in the highlands of Valle de Guadalupe, Jalisco, Mexico that’s distilled to high standards. Unlike some brands of mezcal, it doesn't have a smoked flavour and instead is slightly on the sweet side. The truth is that so much tequila is actually produced in factory-style distilleries, serving 60 plus brands, with just one master distiller,’ says Matthew Hechter who, together with partner Chris Brandon of Tepozan tequila, is campaigning for greater transparency in the industry. Because tequila has a problem. Actually, it has a few. And the result is that many of us don’t know what we’re drinking. A recent crowd-pleaser on our shelf at The Wesley is Curamia Reposado tequila. Curamia is a collaboration between female power duo Dafna Mizrahi, winner of ‘Chopped,’ and Melissa Del Savio, a former bartender and industry insider.

G4 Reposado G4 According to Tequila Matchmaker, 818 is made at NOM 1137, along with tequilas from 63 other brands. And while there’s nothing technically wrong with Jenner hitching her carriage to the mass production engine, it feels a little dishonest for the brand to be pitching itself as being produced by a ‘close family’, trying to ‘keep it as traditional as much as we can.’ ( ELLE reached out to Kendall Jenner’s team for comment and a representative said: '818 is in the process of switching to a new NOM and their distillery remains a family-owned and operated group.') In these factories, ‘they’re often using the same agave, the same water, the same yeast and what they call their ‘recipes’ are actually different mixtures of additives,’ he continues. ‘So, some might use a little more vanilla, some might use a little bit more oak extract. And that's really the only way to differentiate between some of the brands.’ Tequila, which is very popular alongside salt and lime, is made exclusively from the blue agave plant (agave tequilana). Because Fortaleza Blanco is the best Blanco tequila, it is best than Don Julio Blanco. This tequila is pure Agave, rich, complex, and tasty, with the right amount of warmth to make a great sipper.

From chemically accelerating the agave’s ageing process and diluting the product with low-cost sugar-based spirits, through to reliance on undisclosed synthetic additives to mimic natural flavour profiles, there are widespread tequila industry practices that you might not be aware of. And throwing money at the situation is no guarantee that the tequila on the table is additive-free or made in the traditional way that you pictured. There’s every possibility that your favourite top-shelf tipple was mass produced in a factory along with 20 other brands. And the flavours that you had assumed were unique to the plant, process or ageing barrel are actually artificial. Of the 1,500 tequila brands in production, it would be impossible to say for sure how most of these are distilled, or whether they use anything synthetic, because there is no legal requirement for these companies to make this known.Mezcal is Tequila's slightly less well known cousin, fans of agave based drinks knowing the difference but I very much thought they were just the same with a different name.
