Jalisco

We love Alto Canto at Community. This new tequila is made by people who care about every aspect of what they are doing and have built it from the ground up. It’s unique, high altitude agave that brings subtlety to the forefront even at high proof. Perfect for sipping or making cocktails (the high proof definitely helps when mixers hit), this additive free tequila, made with only agave and water, is citrusy and full of notes of mountain pine and white pepper. 

This organic reposado is lighter in color than most others you will come across. This attribute is due to the high elevation at which tequila is made and the lack of any additives to darken spirit. It’s a must have for tequila lovers that like to have an array of styles to choose from. Especially lovely on a hot day with notes of dried apricot, cedar, and Provençal herbs.

The Rosales family who produces Cascahuin has been working as tequileros since 1902. In the 1980s the family abandoned their traditional stone Tahona mill for a more efficient roller mill, but recently they decided to revive and reinstall the tahona (+a mechanically driven arm) and use small copper alembique still to produce this excellent tequila. It’s rich and complex, balancing peppercorn, cooked agave, and fresh earth punctuated with waves of tropical fruits. Absolutely a benchmark among lowlands (or valles) tequilas.

This fun bottle is a good well mixer, the profile is especially suited to margaritas.

A staple tequila with a cult-following that’s perfect for lining your bar. It’s mineral, herbal, and has a cleanliness from the rain water washing.

This is a very fun sipping blanco with a distinct harmony between the vegetal cooked agave and spices like anise and black pepper.

Terroir-driven tequilas from a 5th generation farmer and 3rd generation Tequilero. The reposado is rich in fruit with vanilla, butterscotch, and sweet spice to balance the mineral expression.
