More than 70 years ago, the founder of the brand, Don Felipe Camarrena created one of the finest brands of pure tequilas. The end result is the 100% blue agave tequila that’s all made by hand. As with all famous tequilas, El Tesoro is created in Mexico but in this case, it’s grown in Jalisco, Mexico – a very special mountain that can let the agaves grow into its perfection. Since most of the tequilas are created in almost the same way, perfect agave gave El Tesoro a great edge. But El Tesoro didn’t end there, instead of getting regular agaves; El Tesoro used Weber agave – the best in the industry.
There are four different kinds of El Tesoro: the Platinum, Reposado, Añejo and Paradiso.
The El Tesoro Platinum is a very smooth alcohol as it uses only the best part of Agave. Since it doesn’t need any aging, the smooth part of Agave makes sure it’s a great tequila inside and out. The Reposado on the other hand is aged for eleven months. This mild, tangy flavor with sweeter essence is perfect for a straight shot. If you’re not that good in creating a good concoction, this is your perfect tequila. The Añejo flavor, by Mexican regulations, requires a year of aging. But in El Tesoro they extended the aging to two to three years. The Paradiso is not just a tequila but it’s a combination of tequila cognac. Using 100% blue agave, the Paradiso Tequila is aged not in regular tequila barrels but cognac worthy barrels.
These four flavors capture each of the preferred flavors of each drinker. Getting these all done is not easy with El Tesoro. That’s why it one of the most sought after tequila. All these steps require close observation, making sure these things are created up to standard and to perfection. With their seven-step process, from harvesting to bottling is being watched over by trained professionals.
Tasting El Tesoro Tequila is a great experience especially if you’re a seasoned tequila drinker. As it uses only 100% blue agave, it’s sure to give more than its fair share of great taste. These tequilas are usually aged without any use of water. If you think that will complicate the flavor since it will be pure agave, it even tastes better without the use of any water.
The best part of El Tesoro is that it has perfected its flavor that it doesn’t really require additional flavoring to enjoy it’s taste. However, it’s possible that some doesn’t want the strong flavored tequila straight. Although there’s no absolute formula to get the best flavor for each person, each El Tesoro is perfect with simple cranberry juice to spike the flavor a little bit.
All in all El Tesoro is one tequila drink that you will always consider. Since they use only the best ingredients with personalization that’s unrivaled, it’s undoubtedly one of the best Tequilas in the world right now.
