Doña Mariana
Alce Negro Gold
Alce Negro Gold is a tequila classified as Joven. Tequila holds protected status under Mexican law since 1974 and requires Agave tequilana Weber variedad azul. Production remains confined to Jalisco and select areas in Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit, and Tamaulipas. Each bottle bears a NOM number identifying its distillery. While Joven typically denotes an unaged spirit, this tequila category may also blend blanco with aged expressions or include permitted additives. This label sits within that flexible Joven definition for tequila, distinct from the unaged standard of mezcal.
