Solento Organic Anejo Tequila

Solento is the USDA certified organic tequila founded in 2019 by Taylor Steele, the surf filmmaker from Encinitas, who fell for sipping tequila in New York and went to Mexico to find a source, settling on a Tequila Valley distillery with more than six decades of history, NOM 1480. The name joins the Spanish words for sun and slow. It is made in small batches from certified-organic single-estate blue Weber agave harvested at seven years, cooked in brick ovens, roller-milled, fermented open-air in stainless steel, and double distilled in stainless pot stills with copper coils. The Añejo spends eighteen months in American oak barrels, the longest rest in the range, and is bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) in a minimalist 750ml bottle. Solento describes it as the boldest of the three, with buttery maple, toasted hazelnuts and hints of oak layered over the cooked agave that runs through the whole line. At eighteen months it has real wood weight without crossing into extra añejo territory, so it still reads as tequila rather than bourbon. Pour it neat after dinner, or swap it into an Old Fashioned when you want agave and maple instead of rye spice.
