Tierra Noble Blanco Tequila 40% 750ml Nom 1558
Description: | History,. Surrounded by the spectacular view of the mountains in âLa Sierra del Tigreâ, you will find âLa Estacadaâ, one of the highest distilleries above sea level in the world. It is in this noble land where the natural resources and passion of Tierra Noble's founder meet to create a generous tequila. Tierra Noble is made with passion by the Herrera family at La Estacada just outside the beautiful mountain town of Mazamitla, Jalisco. La Estacada is the highest modern distillery on the planet at. 7,200 feet of elevation, in Jalisco's Sierra del Tigre, a place of cool forests, clean air and pure mountain springs. At this altitude, the low temperatures cause to the cooked agave mash to ferment slowly with exclusively Montpelier wine yeast while preserving the aromatic richness of the agave. Completely unique in the tequila industry, Tierra Noble achieves a secondary malolactic fermentation â" more common in chardonnay production than in spirits â" after the initial alcoholic fermentation, which manifests as surprising, beautiful buttery notes in the final product. Tierra Noble sources their 8-10 year-old blue agaves from small farmers in both Los Altos and the Valley of Tequila. We double-distilled in elongated custom stainless steel pot stills designed to enhance floral notes. Finally, Tierra Noble is aged in barrels made from 75-year-old American and 150-year-old French white oak, gently aging and imprinting softness and aromas to our already complex tequila thanks to the cold temperatures in the barrel rooms and to the ceaseless passage of time. Tasting Notes,. Nose: Very well defined, strong presence of cooked agave, herbal notes, mint and citrus, with a light gleam of anise. Palate: Smooth and fresh with a building intensity; notes of raw agave give a long, rich and balanced finish. |
