Description:
We start with Fair Trade, Colorado Department of Agriculture Certified 100% Organic Raw Blue Agave and ferment in small 55 gallon barrels. Each batch is distilled in custom copper stills hand built in Colorado. Our Añejo Agave is then left to rest in medium charred and toasted Brand New North American White Oak barrels for 12 months, during which, heavy oak and vanilla notes are infused, culminating in a spirit fit to be King.

Varietal Definition
Tequila:
Tequila is a Blue Agave-based spirit made primarily in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, 65 kilometres (40 mi) northwest of Guadalajara, and in the highlands (Los Altos) of the western Mexican state of Jalisco. Mexican laws state that tequila can be produced only in the state of Jalisco and limited regions in the states of Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas.[2] Mexico has claimed the exclusive international right to the word "tequila", threatening legal actions against manufacturers in other countries. Tequila is most often made at a 38–40% alcohol content (76–80 proof), but can be produced between 35–55% alcohol content (70–110 proof).[3] Though most tequilas are 80 proof, many distillers will distill to 100 proof and then dilute it with water to reduce its harshness. Some of the more well respected brands distill the alcohol to 80 proof without using additional water as a diluter.
