In this episode of Tequila Aficionado’s Sipping off the Cuff, Mike Morales and Alex Perez taste and discuss Don Saul Tequila Plata.
Don Saul Plata
It is clear and un-aged, where the true flavors and intensity of the Agave are present, along with it’s natural sweetness. Bottled directly after distillation, or stored in stainless steel tanks for up to 4 weeks. 100% blue agave.
Don Saul tequila is produced in the lowlands of the state of Jalisco, in the town of Tequila (yes, there is a town called that). Our tequila is made in a state-of-the-art, but family-owned tequilera which dates to 1924 (while the family and a distillery can be traced back to the area for almost 300 years).The master distiller is the third generation descendant of the original owner.
La Purisima Distillery, the makers of Don Saul Tequila, uses the traditional Hornitos clay ovens unlike most of their modern rivals, who use live steam or huge steel ovens that look more like lumber drying kilns to quickly mass produce their idea of a tequila. The steel ovens and other shortcuts don’t yield the same flavor or results.
