La Malinche Gold Tequila Mexico 70 cl 38%

Golden, with glints of amber and silver in the glass — that is how La Malinche Gold introduces itself before you have even lifted the bottle. The aroma of cooked agave meets caramel and citrus, with Jalisco's warm evenings waiting somewhere in the background. A tequila built to be shared, whether at the table or in a cocktail glass.

Expert Description

La Malinche Gold is a Mexican Gold Tequila from Jalisco, made from 100% blue agave and bottled at 38%. The bottle comes from Tequilas del Señor, a distillery founded in 1943 by Don Cesar García in the town of Tequila, where the craft has passed down through generations. The agave plants — Agave Tequilana Weber Azul — are harvested no earlier than eight years of growth, after which the piñas are cooked, pressed and fermented before the finished distillate is bottled under the La Malinche brand, distributed by the Spanish Grupo Luis Caballero.
