94 POINTS GOLD MEDAL "EXCEPTIONAL" BTI 2013
Native highlander and master distiller Enrique Fonseca employees unique technique with Purasangre, distilling earthy Atotonilco El Alto agave first in stainless steel alembic pot stills followed by a second distillation in copper pots. The tequila is both rich and balanced, with a distinctive agave flavor inherent of Atotonilco’s 5,200’ elevation. In keeping with Casa Xalixco’s house preference, the Gran Reserva Extra Añejo variety is barreled in French oak casks for five years.
