Origin
Located within the designated Denomination of Origin zone, Tequila el Gran Legado de Vida nurtures its Blue Tequilana Weber agave plantations in the Michoacán region, benefiting from the unique climatic conditions and the region's rich, fertile soil. The meticulous preparation of Tequila el Gran Legado de Vida takes place in our el Arenal and Regional distilleries, situated in Jalisco, Mexico, where tradition meets quality in the crafting of our tequila.
Craft
The creation of our tequila is a meticulous process, beginning with the cooking phase where the agave hearts are gently cooked over three days in a steam-injected masonry oven, followed by a one-day cooldown period. For extraction, we utilize 100% mills to ensure the purest agave juice. The fermentation process then takes place over four days in stainless steel tanks, setting the stage for the distinct flavor profile of our tequila.
Distillation
Distillation is conducted in two stages, initially in a stainless steel alembic with a copper coil, followed by a second distillation to refine the spirit to perfection. The tequila leaves the second distillation at 55% alcohol by volume and is then carefully diluted to 40%, striking the perfect balance of potency and taste. Before bottling, the tequila is stabilized in stainless steel for 15 to 30 days to ensure its quality and character. The final step in our process is the packaging, where each bottle is filled, labeled, and packaged by hand .
