La Gritona Reposado Tequila

La Gritona Reposado is a 100% agave tequila distilled by Melly Cardenas and her small batch distillery (NOM 1533) in Valle de Guadalupe in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Rested for 8 months in barrels, then bottled in one of the most distinctive bottles in the marketplace, all handblown from recycled Mexican Coke bottles in a neighboring township.
The tequila is grown in the red soil of Jalisco and cultivated at the height of its sugar production and placed it earth ovens within 24 hours of being cut. They are rested for another 24 hours before being crushed, allowing the liquid to naturally ferment and mature before going into a double-distilled process.
Melly and her all-women team rest the tequila in reused American Jack Daniels whiskey barrels for 8 months before filtering and bottling. Every step of the process is overseen by a small staff of local women who work each process from start to finish.
This environmentally forward company offers all the agave remnants from the process over to local farmers to feed cattle. The porcelain bottle tops are even recycled and can be sent back to the plant for processing.

Thanks for watching our tequila review. Please check out our others. As far as the beer that uses the same type of top mechanism it''s Grolsch Pilsner beer from The Netherlands. We're pretty sure it's still made. But, indeed, it is a very interesting capping mechanism and is unique to La Gritona in the tequila world. Salud!
