Due to the characteristic terroir of this region, tequilas from the Valles, overall, have themes of minerality, notes of pepper, and are more robust. The first thing one notices about this tequila is the pristine color and motion of the spirit. Siembra Valles starts with the silky texture on the palette. Immediately, strong and sweet aromas of cooked agave rise to the nose, that go from citrus to earthy. This prevalent agave scent and taste is a reflection of the process at Cascahuin; principally the use of bagasse in fermentation. One can taste the earth of Arenal, and the masonry of Cascahuin’s ovens. This spirit coats your mouth with dry spices, dates, figs, the buttery aroma of orange blossoms, flowers and copper notes straight from the still. These flavors, beginning in the mid and upper palette, distinguish the plants used, the natural fields they come from and the valley surrounding them. The approachable, subtle presence of alcohol is surprising, given the 80 proof. The finish is dry, elegant, and complex; reminiscent of jasmine and lime peel. Once the glass is empty, smell the strong cooked agave and butter scents left.
“Any good agave spirit, due to the richness of the raw material (agave), will contain 400 to 1,000 organoleptic elements ranging from fruits, spices, minerals, herbs, and more. We invite you to explore the hundreds of elements your palette will be exposed to. Join us in the Valles.”
