Virgo Tequila: Fertility, Strength and Perfection.
VIRGO
THE STORY BEHIND VIRGO
Virgo, an earth sign, the roman and greek goddess of the harvest, strives to bring fertility, strength and perfection to the world. She carries within her the secrets of life, the cycles of nature, and the force that makes things grow.
Virgo is a small batch, artisan tequila, which we take great pride in producing. We believe perfection is achieved not from doing extraordinary things, but in doing ordinary things extraordinarily well. From the field to the bottle our goal is to provide you with an authentic, pure, handcrafted tequila that will allow your distinguished palate to experience the fertility, strength and perfection of the agave in every sip.
¡Salud! ¡Porque belleza sobra!
OUR PROCESS
The Blue Agave, grown in the fertile soils of the agave region of Jalisco, has evolved for tens of thousands of years and has the strength to survive extreme high and low temperature acclimation in response to changing day/night air temperatures.
Our Blue Agaves are harvested and created into what we call perfection. Done as tradition dictates; our agaves grow between 6 to 7 years so that they attain optimal maturity and sugar concentration. This allows us to work with quality raw materials that offer an ideal final product. We take great pride in our attention to detail from beginning to end.
Our agave pineapples are carefully sliced and cooked for 16hrs. We extract the agave juice using only a single roller mill, repeating the process over and over again with the water mixture that will give the product its unique profile and tasting notes.
We ferment in fully open stainless steel tanks for approximately 4 to 6 days without adding anything else. We allow the wild yeasts and external agents of the area convert the sugars into alcohol and as a result achieve those unique notes.
Our distillation process is slow, very slow, in stainless steel stills, and it is here where our Master Distiller, Francisco Jiménez, demonstrates the art of creating tequila.
We allow our reposado and añejo tequilas to mature in American white oak barrels. We like to let it rest long enough for it to obtain the strength and notes of the barrel but without ever neglecting its origin from which everything is born and begins.
Our NOM 1599, is a unique number assigned by the CRT, the Tequila Regulatory Council of Mexico, to companies complying with the established standards and regulations to ensure the quality of tequila. Tequila has become internationally recognized and is a Mexican designation of origin product in more than 40 countries.
“Perfection is Achieved Not When There Is Nothing More to Add, But When There Is Nothing Left to Take Away” Antoine de Saint-Exupery
