Montagave Blanco 'Héritage' (Lot 237) 750ML - the second release under the 'Héritage' label and offers a unique bottling of 1422 bottles that will never be replicated. We selected 5 of our favorite Grand Cru Bordeaux barrels from Lot 172 to be used in this 2nd fill edition.
"New make" Cascahuín Blanco entered the barrel at 45% alc/vol and was left for 57 days. Bottled at 41% alc/vol, the result is a beautiful expression from NOM 1123, with a touch more Cascahuín distillery character and a touch less flavor and color influence from the Bordeaux wine barrel. This limited bottling offers a unique experience for the Tequila enthusiast and encapsulates the very spirit of craftsmanship, collaboration, and innovation of Montagave.
Montagave is produced by the Rosales Family at the Cascahuin Distillery (NOM 1123) in El Arenal, Jalisco, MX. Cascahuin, which translates to "mountain of light," borrows its name from a mountain nearby. The Rosales family's distilling tradition began in 1904 and spans four generations. For over 100 years, the Rosales family has dedicated themselves to a single pursuit: a steadfast focus on the sustainable production of the highest possible quality.

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.
