BAR (d) spirits

The product of Blue Weber Agave is permitted to be produced in five provinces in Mex-ico. Tequila in its unaged (blanco) state is clean and herbaceous. Once briefly rested in oak (reposado) sharp edges are softened and some oak character is taken on. If fully aged in oak (anejo), tequila exhibits caramel, vanilla, and other oak-driven aromas.

Another Mexican agave spirit, mezcal can be made with any native agave or ‘maguey.’ Instead of cooking the maguey with steam as in tequila production, the magueys are cooked over fire which imparts the spirit with an unmistakable smoky aroma.
