Description
About the Distillery
1800 Tequila is produced by the Casa Cuervo distillery, which is one of the oldest and most esteemed tequila distilleries in Mexico. It is located in the town of Tequila, Jalisco, and has a rich history dating back to the 18th century.
How this product is made
Harvesting and Cooking: Mature blue agave plants are harvested, and their spiky leaves are removed, leaving behind the piña, the heart of the agave. The piñas are slow-cooked in ovens or autoclaves to convert the starches into fermentable sugars.
Extraction of Juices: After cooking, the agave hearts are crushed, and the juice, known as ” aguamiel,” is extracted. This juice is rich in sugars and is the basis for fermentation.
Fermentation: The aguamiel is fermented using yeast to convert the sugars into alcohol. This fermentation process results in a liquid with a low alcohol content.
Distillation: The fermented liquid is distilled at least twice in copper pot stills or column stills to increase the alcohol concentration and remove impurities, resulting in a clear and smooth tequila.
Bottling: After distillation, the tequila is typically not aged, preserving its transparent appearance and vibrant agave flavors. It is then bottled and made available for distribution and consumption.
