Doña Mariana
2012 Luna Nueva Silver
2012 Luna Nueva Silver is a blanco tequila from Jalisco. NOM 1107 marks this spirit made with Tequilana agave. Stone brick ovens cook the hearts before roller mill extraction. Stainless steel tanks hold the fermentation while deep well water adds clarity. Two distillations in hybrid stills refine the profile further. The nose remains subtle yet the finish proves notably smooth and balanced. This expression showcases clean execution without aggressive intensity or heavy oak influence. It delivers a gentle introduction with mild character notes typical of young agave spirits. The palate offers clarity on the tongue while maintaining approachable flavor throughout.
