TEQUILA & MEZCAL

Cuervo^? Gold is golden-style joven tequila made from a blend of reposado (aged) and younger tequilas. Ever the story-maker, Cuervo^? Gold?s own story includes the leading role in the invention of The Margarita, and it is still the perfect tequila for that beloved cocktail.

El Jimador - There?s no rush when it comes to el Jimador A?ejo. It means ?aged? in Spanish and we?re proud to call it the best expression of el Jimador we?ve ever made. We double distill the finest blue Weber agave and then mature it in American oak barrels for 12 months to craft this award-winning tequila. It?s rich, full-bodied and packed with deep spice flavors like cinnamon. Pour it slow and savor every sip.

Calle 23 (pronounced Kai-Yay 23) tequila is the result of a journey started in 2003 by French-born biochemist Sophie Decobecq. Sophie?s patience and passion drove her to create a tequila that could first of all satisfy her own palate, then the palates of potential aficionados. Calle 23 is a highland tequila from Jalisco. Highland tequilas are known for their sweetness. Sophie distils each expression separately (Blanco, Reposado, A?ejo) using combinations of different yeasts. This is very unusual. The Blanco is a 100% agave tequila, which reflects the purest expression of the pure agave flavour.

Tradicional^? Reposado is 100% blue agave rested tequila. It has been aged in oak barrels for a minimum of two months, giving it the smooth and subtle complexity that aficionados seek. Tradicional is the original Cuervo^? tequila, and it is still the number one premium tequila in Mexico.*

Gracias a Dios Mango is made with agave Espadin in Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca by maestro mezcalero Oscar Hernandez. As the name of this mezcal indicates, mango is added to the distillate between the first and second distillation. The mangos used in this mezcal were grown on the coast of Oaxaca, where they ripen in the late spring and early summer.

About this mezcal

The Marca Negra Tobala is a burly Mezcal. Certain batches are greater than 50% ABV and there are few mezcals in the US (especially agave Tobala) with this level of alcohol content. Though the strength of the spirit is unavoidable, the ABV does not overpower this mezcal. There are hints of tropical fruit flavor. As a Tobala, the bar is high and Mezcal Marca Negra has made this a very complex spirit by making it with such a high ABV.

Marca Negra Mezcal

Mezcal Marca Negra is made for all who wish to explore and embrace the ancient traditions of true mezcal. The handprint on the bottle represents the tireless work of the master distillers and the ancient knowledge that marks each and every batch. Marca Negra seeks the purest and most diverse expressions of this fantastic spirit, wherever they made be found. Due to limited batch production, the product line changes constantly. New mezcal varieties are created while others cease to exist. Mezcal Marca Negra is 48% ABV or higher because the mezcal is bottled at the alcohol level preferred by the maestro mezcaleros. Check your bottles for details about each specific batch.
