Bribón comes from a tequila family with genuine roots — distilling since 1840, operating from their own distillery in the village of Tequila, Jalisco since 1924, and still producing several respected labels out of the same facility. The name is Spanish slang for "rascal," the charismatic, slightly roguish character everyone's glad to see walk into the room. What separates Bribón from most bottles at its price is process rather than marketing: only fully mature Blue Weber agave, grown seven to ten years and harvested by hand, cooked a full 18 hours at 100°C to draw out maximum flavor, fermented with a proprietary house yeast developed in-house, then double distilled using a blend of pot still and column still distillate — the pot still component being why reviewers keep noting more botanical depth here than a value tequila usually delivers. The results speak: 92 points at the Ultimate Spirits Challenge and 89 from Tastings.com for the Blanco, 90 points from Wine Enthusiast for the Reposado, and as high as 94 for the Añejo. The range runs crisp and peppery in the Blanco, rounder and vanilla-laced in the oak-rested Reposado, and rich with butterscotch and dried fruit in the year-plus Añejo. Priced to mix, made well enough to sip.
