This year, tequila-based drinks are stealing the spotlight, offering a versatile and sophisticated base for your signature holiday cocktails. With Casa Azul Organic Tequila, you can delight your guests and ensure every toast is as exceptional as the moment.
Why choose Casa Azul Organic Tequila for your holiday celebrations?
Not all tequilas are created equal. To make your gatherings truly unforgettable, elevate your bar selection with a premium tequila like Casa Azul Organic Tequila. Here's why it stands out:
Choose premium craftsmanship
Premium 100% USDA certified organic tequilas like Casa Azul Organic Tequila offer richer and smoother flavor, which creates memorable cocktails. But what makes a brand premium? It's not about price, it's about perfection - which doesn't come easily. Casa Azul is crafted from fully mature 100% single estate blue agave grown in the Tequila Valley Lowlands, where mineral-rich volcanic soil imparts unique character to each batch. The tequila is made using pure, deep well water from 885 feet below ground. Their agave is baked over two to three days immediately after harvesting in traditional stone ovens, then extracted with a traditional roller mill. A natural, open-top fermentation in stainless steel tanks with wild yeast follows, an approach that enriches the tequila's depth and complexity. Finally, the tequila is twice distilled then rested, allowing it to aerate naturally for a smoother, softer profile before aging.
Choose certified organic
While all tequila comes from agave, the key differences between organic and non-organic options lie in farming practices. Casa Azul's 100% USDA organic certification reflects the brand's dedication to quality. Each agave plant is carefully tended to by hand, using time-honored traditions passed down through a multi-generational family of distillers and agave farmers. These organic practices ensure their tequilas are completely free from any pesticides or chemicals, with nothing added or taken away.
The perfect gift for any host
The holidays are all about presentation, and Casa Azul's stunning bottle is as memorable as the tequila inside. Whether as a hostess gift or a centerpiece on your bar, its iconic frosted bottle brings a festive touch to any occasion. While these considerations are important, they're not the only factors involved in choosing the perfect tequila for your gathering. Casa Azul Organic Tequila offers three distinct varieties of tequila that cater to every taste and cocktail style:
Casa Azul Organic Tequila Blanco
Crisp and zesty, Casa Azul ages this tequila for two to three months in stainless steel for bright citrus and white pepper notes with the pure essence of baked agave.
Casa Azul Organic Tequila Reposado
Velvety and rich, aged four to six months in bourbon casks with notes of vanilla, caramel and oak, balanced with the warm essence of agave.
Casa Azul Organic Tequila Añejo
Bold and balanced, aged over 15 months with flavors of caramel, oak and vanilla, finished with a touch of seasoned oak.
