Join us on a journey to uncover the secrets behind the creation of this beloved beverage as we delve into the world of tequila-making with Cabi Wabo.
The Origins of Tequila
Tequila traces its origins back to the town of Tequila in Jalisco, Mexico, where the blue agave plant thrives in the volcanic soil of the region. The process of making tequila begins with the harvest of these agave plants, which are carefully selected for their quality and maturity. Once harvested, the agave hearts, or piñas, are roasted, crushed, and fermented to extract the sweet juices that will eventually become tequila.
The Craft of Distillation
After fermentation, the liquid is distilled to purify and concentrate the alcohol content, a crucial step in defining the flavor and character of the tequila. Cabi Wabo’s master distillers use traditional copper pot stills to carefully distill the spirit, capturing the essence of the agave and creating a smooth, complex tequila that delights the senses.
Aging and Flavor Development
Tequila can be aged in a variety of barrels, including oak, which imparts unique flavors and aromas to the spirit. The aging process allows the tequila to develop complexity and depth, with notes of vanilla, caramel, and spice emerging over time. Cabi Wabo offers a range of tequilas aged to perfection, each showcasing the artistry of the aging process.
