Agave aficionados are savoring the complexity and craftsmanship of high-end tequila.
The Lone Star State's love affair with tequila is evolving. While margaritas and shots still reign supreme, a discerning palate is emerging among Texas tequila enthusiasts. Premiumization is the name of the game, with consumers increasingly seeking out top-shelf tequilas crafted with 100% blue weber agave and boasting nuanced flavor profiles developed through extended aging.
Reposado and Añejo: The New Stars of the Show

These aged varieties offer a depth of flavor and complexity that's captivating Texas taste buds. Notes of caramel, vanilla, oak, and spice dance across the palate, making them perfect for sipping and savoring.
