Enrique Fonseca wasnt always a Tequila maker. At first, he and his father were growing the finest agave for the two biggest Tequila producers in Mexico since the 1980s. But when the contracts expired (and the producers refused to renew them), Fonseca was left with hundreds of acres of agave. Sure, he could make Tequila, but Fonseca didnt know how to make Tequila and also, he didnt have a distillery. First thing, he bought La Tequilea distillery that had both alembic and column stills. Other Tequileros only had alembic stills. But he still had no idea how to use them. So, Fonseca went to the best in the game when it comes to column stills; he went to the Scots. With his new found knowledge to work those stills, he created an entirely new class of Tequila.
Fonseca blends Tequila from both alembic and column stills and hes into ageing for longer periods of time, which makes his concoctions rich yet graced and bold yet delicate. Good thing those Tequila producers didnt extend his contracts!
Tres Quatro Cinco Extra Aejo Tequila is a blend of 30% 3-year-old, 40% 4-year-old, and 30% 5-year-old Extra Aejo Tequilas. Aged in French oak, this stuff belongs in the highest class of super premium Tequilas from the Highlands region of Jalisco. The limited-edition crystal decanter was designed and signed by the Mexican artist Alonso Gonzalez Jr.
