Tequila General Gorostieta is an homage to courage. It is a love letter and a silent acknowledgement to those who stand and fight for what they believe in, those who overcome adversity with bravery and resilience. To those who have chosen sacrifice yet remain faithful to the cause they pursue. A tequila for those who believe.
General Gorostieta’s story is one of sacrifice, valor, and endurance. A hidden and almost unknown story written 100 years ago. Today we have decided to dust it off, tell it truthfully, and spread it to the world.
TASTING NOTES
Visual phase: Bright, luminous, white with silver hues, and full-bodied.
Olfactory phase: At first impression, intense notes of caramel, vanilla, cooked agave, and dulce de leche develop due to its slow cooking. Fruity hints of red pomegranate, yellow plum, chico zapote, and citrus tones of grapefruit and lemon define the Alteño terroir. Light spicy notes of black pepper, floral aromas of rose petals, and subtle mineral tones due to its careful distillation compose its balanced profile.
Tasting phase: Its first impression on the palate is silky, fully confirming its olfactory promise leaving traces of fruity, sweet, floral, and mineral flavors as well as the cooked agave taste. It’s a sweet and drawn-out mouthfeel.
