15 Generations of Mezcaleros
The Jimenez family maintains absolute respect for the quality of the 100% agave product that they produce, using only mature agaves from the Amatitán region, having productions with Blue Agave Tequilana Weber and with Agave Angustifolia as their ancestors did. Caballito Cerrero is the result of the knowledge acquired by the Jimenez family through fifteen generations of producers of vino mezcal, tequila and agave distillate, the geographical conditions of the Santa Rita factory and the effort of a family to stay true to their convictions and traditions.
Craftsmanship:
- Cooking: The agave hearts were slowly cooked for 24 hours in a traditional brick steam oven.
- Resting: Following cooking, the agave rested for an extended 24-36 hours. Extraction: The cooked agave was then processed through a double pass mill, achieving a must with a Brix level of 11.
- Yeast: Fermentation was carried out using a combination of wild and proprietary yeasts, contributing to the spirit's unique character.
- Water Source: Only natural spring water was used in the distillation process.
- Distillation: The spirit was double-distilled in a combination of stainless steel and copper pot stills. Barrel: This exceptional Añejo rested for 13 months in Barrel No. 14.
Tasting Notes:

- Despite its 13-month aging, the sweet cooked agave remains remarkably present, a testament to the exceptional quality of the spirit.
- Bottled at a natural 50% ABV, this cask strength expression is surprisingly soft on the palate, delivering its rich flavors with impressive smoothness.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
