El Gran Legado Still Strength Tequila
El Gran Legado Still Strength Tequila
El Gran Legado Still Strength Tequila is an ultra-limited, exceptionally clean blanco produced at the legendary Destilería Cascahuín (NOM 1123) in El Arenal, Jalisco — one of Mexico's most respected traditional distilleries. With only 1,500 liters produced and 2,000 bottles released in the US, this is a rare find for the serious agave enthusiast.
Bottled at still strength — undiluted directly from the copper pot stills — this expression captures the purest, most concentrated expression of Cascahuín's signature Valles terroir. Made from 100% single-estate Blue Weber agave, brick oven roasted, naturally fermented, and double-distilled with zero additives. A wonderfully clean, agave-forward blanco of remarkable character and honesty.
