Crafted at NOM 1477 (Tequila Selecto de Amatitán) under the guidance of Master Distiller Alberto Partida, Amatiteña is dedicated to preserving ancestral tequila-making techniques that predate industrialization. The \"Barrancas\" release celebrates the unique microclimate and mineral-rich soils of the ravines (\u003cem\u003ebarrancas\u003c\/em\u003e) surrounding Amatitán, delivering an unadulterated, high-proof, and deeply smoky Lowland agave experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSpirit Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmatiteña Barrancas Blanco is crafted from fully mature, estate-grown agave piñas harvested from the low-lying ravine areas of Amatitán. In stark contrast to modern industrial tequilas, the agaves are cooked in traditional wood-fired brick ovens (\u003cem\u003ehornos\u003c\/em\u003e) using mesquite and oak wood, imparting a distinct, subtle smoky character. The cooked agaves are crushed entirely using a heavy volcanic stone \u003cem\u003etahona\u003c\/em\u003e wheel pulled by a tractor. Fermentation takes place in open-air wooden vats using wild airborne yeasts with agave fibers (\u003cem\u003ebagazo\u003c\/em\u003e) included in the wash, followed by double distillation in small copper pot stills. Unaged and bottled additive-free, it bridges classic Lowland earthiness with artisanal wood-smoke complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crystal clear with luminous silver reflections and thick, slow legs in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intensely aromatic, earthy, and rustic.
