Overview: DeLeón Silver Tequila is a premium, unaged tequila crafted from 100% blue weber agave sourced from both the highland and lowland regions of Jalisco, Mexico. Known for its purity and smoothness, this technical description provides insights into its production process and tasting profile.

Production:

  1. Agave Selection: DeLeón Silver starts with the careful selection of fully matured blue weber agave plants. These plants are grown in the diverse agave-rich regions of Jalisco, which contribute to the tequila's distinct flavor profile.

  2. Cooking: The harvested agave piñas (hearts) are slow-cooked in traditional stone ovens. This gentle cooking process preserves the agave's natural sweetness and character.

  3. Milling: After cooking, the agave piñas are crushed to extract the sweet agave juice.

  4. Fermentation: The extracted juice undergoes natural fermentation, where yeast converts the sugars into alcohol. This process results in a high-quality agave wine.

  5. Distillation: DeLeón Silver Tequila is double-distilled in traditional copper pot stills. The distillation process is carefully monitored to ensure a clean and pure distillate.

  • Palate: The flavor profile is exceptionally smooth, with the bright and crisp taste of agave taking the forefront. You'll also notice subtle citrus and herbal notes, balanced by a mild peppery spice.

  • Finish: The finish is clean and refreshingly smooth, with a gentle warmth that lingers briefly.
