PADRE AZUL Tequila Reposado Premium Gift Pack
PADRE AZUL Tequila Reposado Premium Gift Pack, Can you imagine that it has been around 10 years since the Blue Agaves used for this Tequila first stretched their leaves towards the hot Mexican sun? 8 to 10 years of growing, several days of cooking and fermenting, at least 8 months of aging in hand-selected oak bourbon barrels – the most important ingredient of this outstanding Tequila truly is time. The result: A slight vanilla flavor, hints of rare and cooked agave, very distinctive, very pleasant aftertaste…
Padre Azul is made in the town of Amatitán at the Tequila Tres Amigos distillery by Master Distiller, and cousin of Adriana, Erika Sangeado. Agaves for production are harvested from the local alkaline soils of Tequila Valley region, and are left to mature for 8 to 10 years. It all started with a classic boy-meets-girl story: HP Eder, a young man from the Austrian Alps, falls in love with Adriana Alvarez Maxemin, a beautiful young woman from Jalisco, Mexico, who he met at the university in Heidelberg, Germany. Both soon realize that what they have is more than just a student romance, and they decide to build a life together. This marked the beginning of an exciting time for both of them: a time full of culture shocks and long-distance flights, but also full of new encounters, true friendship and great inspirations.
Eder enthusiastically soaked up all the information he could find about tequila, still baffled by the fact that he had never tasted something similar back home in Europe. After introducing his discovery to his friends at home, Eder, Adriana and a handful of his similarly captivated friends made a decision: they would bring this amazing spirit to Europe, and with it a glimpse into the Mexican way of life. Again, it was Eder’s Mexican father-in-law who played a decisive role. He encouraged the friends to create their own premium tequila brand. And that’s how Padre Azul was born.
