    In the Mexican state of Jalisco, volcanic soil cradles the blue agave plants that create Alamo – your new favorite tequila. And the Hernandes Estate near Guadalajara located high in the mountains provides the perfect combination of sunlight, soil and moisture for growing the best quality Weber Blue Agave nature can produce. These unique spirits are fermented and distilled according to stringent Tequila Regulatory Council guidelines and we print our Norma Oficial Mexicana designation number on every bottle so you can be assured you are getting nothing less than certified authentic tequila. Together, the region’s natural bounty and estate’s craftsmanship create a collection of tequilas unlike any other available in Canada.

    Alamo Gold Tequila is Pale amber color. Aromas and flavors of salty roasted almonds, pecan pie, coconut macaroon, and creme brulee with a supple, fruity-yet-dry medium-to-full body and a long, toffee, mocha, dried fruit and spice finish. A rich decadent and artfully balanced Cognac-like Tequila. Touches of roasted peppers, peppercorns, and herbs round out the finish nicely.

    Here’s a recipe we created during Halloween for a great cocktail with the Alamo Tequila
