Process & Profile

Bottling at a higher proof allows the full character of the agave to shine, offering a more concentrated and authentic representation of the distillery’s craftsmanship.

Cascahuin Plata
Wow, delicious from start to finish. Sweet agave with savory mouthfeel. Though high proof, very smooth and dangerously easy to drink. Highly recommended.

Very dry
Lot 193. This is the driest tequila I’ve ever had. It had an upfront chalky, dryness that is quickly followed with the normal sweet, earthy, grassy, and agave tequila flavors you might expect from Cascahuin. It’s a great tequila to keep on the shelf and to sample from time to time.

Cascahuin 48 plata
Aroma had loads of agave, citrus notes. Flavor is packed with agave and some citrus along with a hint of pepper. Very smooth, could sip it all day but the 48 grade of alcohol restrict me to two shots. Very good tequila.
