Sierra Milenario Tequila Fumado

It smokes the competition.

Sierra Milenario Tequila is produced by Destilerías Sierra Unidas in Jalisco, Mexico. The Distillery prides itself on being as eco-friendly and traditional as possible. Their agaves don’t grow in big, artificial greenhouses, but out in the sun-drenched, mineral-rich soil. A special feature of the production is the threefold selection process, which ensures the exclusive harvest of the most valuable agaves from the highlands of Los Altos. Destileria Sierra was also one of the first Tequila distilleries to stop using artificial fertilizers on its fields. They don’t use any machinery to harvest the piñas from the agave plants either and they uncommonly age their Tequilas out in the open, to expose it to as much air as possible — which is quite contrary to the warehousing philosophies of most distilleries.

When it comes to premium Tequila, it doesn’t get much better than this. Sierra Milenario Tequilas are exceptional, but Sierra Milenario Tequila Fumado is especially, umm, special. It is their first smoky Tequila made from 100% blue agave. A unique way of smoking the cooked agave with wood enables the Spirit to develop its characteristic flavor. The Mesquite wood used in the process is usually used for smoking meat (and even Whiskey!) and is famous for its amazing power and aroma. We reckon this is homage to the increasing popularity of mescal, Tequila’s smokier cousin. In the end, due to the threefold distillation process, the Tequila appears crystal clear in the bottle. The taste is soft, rich and smoky — oozing with genuine heartland character. It will blow you away.

In order to develop a product of the highest quality, you have to make sure you use only the best ingredients and have full control of the manufacturing process each step of the way. This distillery follows the principle to the letter and the numerous awards prove that hard work pays off. Excellence is never an accident. It is the result of a commitment to quality, planning and innovation. Sierra Milenario Tequila Fumado smokes the competition.
