Volans Reposado Tequila
Volans Tequila is born in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, at El Pandillo Distillery – NOM 1579. Our Master Distiller, Felipe Camarena is a legend in the tequila business; his family has been growing agave since the 1880’s & distilling for four generations.
El Pandillo not only makes the best tequila in the world but is one of the most sustainable distilleries. Innovations include mosto warming tanks, eco-farming practices, rooftop rain collection, vinaza treatment, turn solid waste into mulch, and not a drop of water is wasted. Every agave is harvested at the peak of maturity, then we cut the cogollo or shoot, and finally rinse the agaves; this reduces bitterness to our distillate. We then use the remains as fertilizer.
Volans Tequila is made using an equal blend of three sources of water; spring, rain, & deep well. The roof of the distillery is a giant rainwater collection system that lets us harvest the rain. The nearby spring and a well that’s over 450 feet deep allows us to give our tequila the softness of the rain and the minerals and flavor of the deep-earth well water and spring water.
Slow and low is the name of the game with Volans Tequila. We cook our fully mature Blue Agave for 22 hours at 94 degrees, then let them cool for another 24-36 hours. It takes another 2-3 days to crush the cooked agaves and then the Mosto ferments in open air tanks for another 5 days. 100% natural. Water, Agave, Yeast, Period. No added glycerine, flavors, colors, aromas, or any other chemicals.
The newest member of the Volans Family is our Reposado Tequila. It is ‘rested’ in used American white oak bourbon barrels for under one year. Volans Reposado features a light amber color. Fruity & earthy aromas along with oak, vanilla, cinnamon, clove, & minerals. A rich and buttery mouthfeel with flavors of agave, minerals, subtle oak, caramel, and a sweet & peppered finish.
