Description
Milagro Tequila was founded in 1998 by Danny Schneeweiss and Moy Guindi. The college friends were admiring Mexico City’s creative scene, bustling with passionate creativity. They felt that the same kind of creativity was missing from the world of tequila, prompting them to kickstart a brand that would bridge the world of traditional tequila with the creativity that permeates Mexico City. They teamed up with prominent Mexican Master Distiller Pedro Juarez, a tequilero with 35 years of experience.Juarez turned out to be the perfect match, as his work with a large multi-national distiller had him feeling that his craft and creativity were being stifled. Milagro tequila is still firmly rooted in tradition, meaning that the spirit is produced in Jalisco, Mexico, using 100% blue Weber agave from the Jalisco Highlands. The agave pias are roasted in hand-built brick ovens for 36 hours before the agave juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks, converting the sugars into alcohol. Juarez opts for two different types of stills: pot stills as well as column stills, ensuring that the vibrant flavors are intact and the resulting spirit is extra-smooth. The Milagro Aejo Tequila spends between 12 and 14 months in American oak, resulting in a complex spirit that remains perfectly balanced the oak notes never outshine the agave. The refined 80-proof spirit has won a Silver Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2019.Grab your bottle today!
