SO, WHAT IS DESTILADO DE AGAVE?
Destilado de Agave is a term used to label a spirit that has been distilled from Agave but cannot legally be labelled as Tequila or Mezcal.
This category is much less restrictive in regard to the kinds of agave that can be used in the production of the agave spirit, and also what can be done to the spirit post-production.
This includes being able to distill and age the spirit outside of Mexico.
AND WHY ARE WE CHOOSING TO MAKE IT?
We chose to make Destilado de Agave so we are not limited in the Weber Blue Agave we can source to produce our spirit. Only blue agave certified by the CRT (Consejo Regulador Del Tequila, A.C.) can be used to produce Tequila.
By sourcing Blue Agave from outside the CRT denomination area, this allows us to use mature Agave, no younger than 6 years old to make LOS ARCOS. It is produced using traditional tequila production methods creating a spirit that not only rivals but surpasses many of the great Tequilas on the market.
