Altos

Production

Altos is made in part by using the traditional Tahona stone method, a 500-year-old ancestral technique used to crush cooked agave. This method is fundamental to the unique process of all Altos tequilas. Subsequently, the liquid is distilled in small copper stills. We recognize that distilling our best tequilas involves harvesting the best agaves from the red soils of Los Altos. The region's ideal climate and mineral-rich soil contribute to creating a tequila that is extraordinarily smooth, but with a complex flavor.

METHOD:

-Start by cutting either a whole lime or half a lemon into small pieces. Squeeze and throw into shaker.

-Next add approximately half an ounce/15ml of your favourite sweetening agent. The amount you use is really up to you. Agave nectar is one of our favourites, but experiment with what is local to you.

-Now add two ounces/60ml of either altos plata or reposado.

-Fill the shaker with a scoop of cubed ice, close the shaker and shake vigorously.

-Open shaker and directly transfer to an old fashioned or similar glass. Top with more ice if needed.
