Philosophy
Tequila – the essence of Mexico. For the inexperienced beach-goer, the mere mention of the spirit may provoke a turning of the nose in reminisce of a morning gone wrong after a long, warm night south of the border. For the aficionado, on the other hand, Tequila may be too broad a genre to excite any particular sense. “Is it 100% de Agave?” they might ask, or, “Blanco, Reposado, or Añejo?” – another typical response. Real Tequila, that is, 100% de Agave, is much more than a shooter pursued by salt and lime. It is a complex, distinguished spirit, distilled and aged with care and precision, offering everything from fresh, tangy cocktails to a rival of a fine single malt. It is this Tequila, with all of the hype and prestige, that Reservas Tequila brings to the Canadian market.
