Kick Back with Azul Imperial: The Woman-Powered Blanco Tequila that's Shaking Things Up

Hailing from Jalisco, Mexico, this Tequila house is whipping up a storm in a male-dominated industry. Macrina Montes' passion led her to girl-boss her way into an exceptional Tequila brand all about quality, not quantity. Casa Montes Leyva isn't just about crafting exceptional Tequila; it's about smashing stereotypes and empowering women.

Azul Imperial is made from agave exclusively grown in their fields, making each batch unique to its origin. It's steamed, crushed, fermented for three days, then double-distilled in stainless steel alambiques to retain that rich agave flavor. The result? A bold Tequila with citrus, vanilla, and spicy notes - as bold as its creator. Here's to Azul Imperial, shaking cocktails and the status quo.

If the Tequila bottle label does not state that it’s manufactured from 100% Blue Agave, then, by default, that Tequila is a Mixto (manufactured from 51% Blue Agave).
Tequila labeled Gold (Oro) is your indicator (i.e., red flag) that you’re dealing with a mixto Tequila - unaged silver Tequila that has been colored and flavored with caramel to give the appearance of aged tequila.

Tequila goes bad with time! Once you open a bottle of Tequila, you better be in the mood to drink it. Generally, you have one to two months before oxidation and evaporation diminish the quality of the Tequila and destroy the Agave flavor profile.
There are over 136 species of Agave. For Tequila to be officially called “Tequila,” it must be comprised of at least 51% of the Blue Weber Agave species.
Need a salt shaker and lime? Nah. The Mexicans take their Tequila neat and prefer to leave the lime and salt for their margaritas. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to follow suit.
