With more than 8 generations of distilling experience in the family. Tesoro #5 was created as a homage to our master distiller's 5 children. Using 100% agave from Arandas, Jalisco, cooked in a brick oven and fermented with natural yeast in a stainless steel tank. We distill twice in a stainless steel pot still. Aged for 3 months in 50% used American oak and 50% used bourbon barrels.

Distilled from the Blue Agave plant, Tequila is a uniquely Mexico spirit. Of the five provinces it is made in, Jalisco produces the most significant share. To be legally classified as a tequila it must contain at least 51% Blue Agave, however producers with ambitions to create Tequila with the fullest flavour will use 100% and advertise the fact on the front label. From youngest to oldest, the categories blanco, reposado, and anjeo reflect the degree of ageing. Blanco, also known as silver, is un-aged. Reposados and Anejos are usually aged in ex-bourbon casks with the former receiving anything between 2 and 11 months and the latter between 1 and 5 years. Ageing beyond 5 years tends to result in the Tequila loosing its agave character.
