Detailed Description
Tierra Noble is made with passion by the Herrera family at La Estacada just outside the beautiful mountain town of Mazamitla, Jalisco. La Estacada is the highest modern distillery on the planet at 7,200 feet of elevation, in Jalisco’s Sierra del Tigre, a place of cool forests, clean air and pure mountain springs. At this altitude, the low temperatures cause to the cooked agave mash to ferment slowly with exclusively Montpelier wine yeast while preserving the aromatic richness of the agave. Completely unique in the tequila industry, Tierra Noble achieves a secondary malolactic fermentation – more common in chardonnay production than in spirits – after the initial alcoholic fermentation, which manifests as surprising, beautiful buttery notes in the final product.
