History,
"La Alteña" distillery is founded by Don Felipe Camarena Hernández in July 7, 1937, and in 1940 began selling tequila 100% Blue agave with the brand name "Tapatío".
In 1990 is launched the brand "El Tesoro de Don Felipe" with tequilas especially designed for international markets.
In July 7, 2007 (07-07-07), the company reached 70 years of its foundation and a tribute was paid to the three generations that, during this period, have shaped and strengthened not only a distillery, but a family that currently remains an icon of artisanal quality.
In July 2012 we proudly celebrated 75 years of growth in which we thanked friends, employees, collaborators, suppliers and consumers for their support and loyalty.
We invite you to join us and keep making history. Bless you!
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Fruity, intense cooked Agave, apple, pear, vanilla and caramel, slightly smoky. White pepper comes in a subtle form. Allowed to breath it becomes creamy with hints of butter. Spices such as clove and sandalwood.
Palate: The sweetness of the cooked Agave flavors predominate; herbal, pepper, slightly smoked with notes of caramel, cocoa, vanilla and nuts (walnut, peanut, hazelnut). A very soft & smooth, yet spicy finish.
