About this bottle
Chinaco Tequila uses 100% blue weber agave using as much agave harvested in Tamaulipas as they can, including their own estate-grown agave. The agaves are cooked in an autoclave for 12 hours and then crushed and shredded. After fermentation, the agave is distilled in a two copper-lined alembic stills. Chinaco Blanco is bottled 30 days after distillation. Chinaco was born when Guillermo González, then Mexico's Secretary of Agriculture, planted agave in his home state of Tamaulipas to supply Jalisco's then-booming tequila industry, only to have his buyers renege on their contracts once the plants were mature. González responded by opening his own distillery in his namesake hometown and lobbying the government for its inclusion in the designated area for tequila production.
