Destilería Santanera Organic Batch Siembra Blanco Tequila

Organic Batch Siembra is a single-estate, single-harvest tequila from Destilería Santanera, the Jalisco house founded in 2009 that began planting its own organic agave in 2016. The agave comes entirely from Terroir La Guasima, an organic-certified estate near the Volcán de Tequila whose mineral-rich red clay soil was planted in May 2016 and harvested once the plants reached maturity. It was made at Tres Mujeres in Amatitán by maestro tequilero Sergio Cruz with Pablo Lara G. and senior distiller Manuel Rivera: the piñas were cooked for 18 hours in the distillery's historic brick and volcanic stone ovens, milled on a roller mill, then given an 18-day open-air spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel that winter's cooler temperatures stretched well past the norm. The tequila was distilled two to three times in stainless steel pot stills, blended, chill-filtered and rested four months in steel before bottling at 42% ABV. Only 1,836 bottles were produced, each certified organic and Jay Kosher. The distributor's tasting notes call it opulent, dense and velvety, with strawberry, moist earth, cardamom and a touch of nutmeg, followed by matcha green tea, sweet herbs, a hint of cinnamon, and a finish of river water and wet stones.
