Gran Dovejo Reposado Tequila

GRAN DOVEJO - is a small-batch, traditionally crafted, premium tequila. Made from 100% of the finest, single-estate, blue agave; our plants are exclusively grown in the beautiful highlands of Jalisco, Mexico by the Vivanco family who has been producing some of the finest agave in the region for over five generations. The agave plants are harvested at the peak of maturity, stripped of their pencas, and the piñas are then slowly roasted in traditional clay ovens for up to 36 hours. Once roasted, the piñas are shredded in a mill after which the sweet agave juices are extracted. Once the juices are isolated, they are fermented with the use of champagne yeast while the harmonious sounds of music play in the background as this is found to optimize the sugar conversion. Our tequila is then double distilled in Alembic copper pot stills. Gran Dovejo blanco is unaged and bottled after distillation. Our reposado and anejo are then aged in American white oak barrels and not bottled until the aroma, body and taste has reached the mandatory standard of our Master Distiller, Mr. Leopoldo Solis Tinoco. Our Reposado is aged anywhere between 6 to 9 months, while our Añejo is aged a minimum of 12 months, but may be left to age as long as 3 years.
