If you love tequila, you know that not all tequila is created equal.

What Is Tequila Made with Agave?
Tequila made with agave comes from the heart of the blue Weber agave plant. Unlike ※mixto§ tequilas, which can include other sugars, 100% agave tequila is made entirely from the natural sugars of the agave. This makes it smoother, more flavorful, and free from additives.
Choosing tequila made with agave ensures you*re getting an authentic Mexican spirit with a clean, crisp taste. It*s perfect for anyone who wants the full flavor of real tequila.
How Tequila Made with Agave Is Made
Making tequila made with agave is a careful process:
1. Harvesting 每 Farmers hand-pick mature blue Weber agave plants, which take 7每10 years to grow.
2. Cooking 每 The pi?as (agave hearts) are slow-cooked to convert starches into sugar.
3. Extracting Juice 每 The cooked agave is crushed to release sweet juice.
4. Fermentation & Distillation 每 The juice ferments, then is distilled to make tequila.
5. Aging 每 Some tequilas are aged in barrels to make reposado, a?ejo, or extra a?ejo varieties.
This process preserves the natural agave flavor, giving every sip a rich, authentic taste.
