Gran Carrizal 14 Plata

Gran Carrizal 14 Plata is a blanco tequila from Los Castillo. This agave spirit uses Tequilana Weber grown in Jalisco under NOM 1624. Stone brick ovens cook the hearts before roller mill and tahona milling. Stainless steel tanks hold the mash during fermentation without fibers present. Copper pot stills complete the double distillation process for this batch. Deep well water supports the production of this 35% abv spirit. Viscous texture defines the mouthfeel alongside distinct peppery notes in the profile. The 2022 vintage carries some defects that influence its character significantly.
