My Tasting Notes: I tried this tequila at Cantina Del Cabo and tasted it in a wine
glass shaped similarly to a Riedel tequila glass. With a clear color, this tequila has
intense aromas of floral, earth, and spice. Other aromas include moderate fruit with
mild smoke. The tequila has a thin mouth feel and on the first sip has a low level of
sweetness with no bitterness. Intense flavors of earth and agave are followed by
moderate notes of fruit and floral. With a short-to-medium duration of flavor, tastes of
mild spice and wood with a hint of smoke bring this tequila to a subtle slightly numbing
finish.
Info on the Back of the Bottle: "Corazon de Agave Tequila is produced in the
heart of the blue agave growing area of Mexico, known as "The Highlands." The family
that creates this exceptional tequila has been growing blue agave more than three
generations. Corazon is made by the traditional method, using 100% blue agave,
distilled twice in pot stills and aged in oak barrels. Corazon de Agave Tequila is estate
grown, distilled, and hand bottled."
Other Info: The History of Corazon Tequila
"In 1896, Don Celso Plascencia had a dream. He was a humble working man born in
the highlands of Jalisco. He worked the land, and as he traveled to and from the fields
that belonged to other men, he promised that one day, his family would own their own
estate and make their own tequila, the spirit of Mexico. He passed this dream onto his
children along with the notion that hard work will make your visions come true.
100 years later, Don Celso’s grandson, Raul Plascencia, fulfilled the dream of his
grandfather. An entrepreneur in Mexico, Raul saved his money and, investing with
others, opened Destiladora San Nicolas in 1998.
Destiladora San Nicolas blends tradition with technology. They create tequila as it has
been made for generations, using the best blue agave, the clearest water, and time.
They bring that process into the 21st century with a state-of-the-art facility and
modern standards. Don Celso’s dream to own his own land, tend his own fields, and
make his own tequila is now a reality. Don Celso’s vision and heart is in Corazon
Tequila." -Corazon Tequila Website
