Production Process:

  • Agave Source: Single Estate Agaves, aged a minimum of 7-10 years, ensuring rich flavor and complexity.
  • Cooking: The agaves are slowly cooked in traditional brick ovens to extract natural sugars and flavors.
  • Crushing: Tahona crushing, an ancient method using a large volcanic stone wheel, gently presses the cooked agaves, preserving their delicate flavors.
  • Fermentation: Open-air fermentation using deep well water and natural spring sources, promoting natural yeast activity and enhancing the tequila's unique profile.
  • Distillation: Double distilled in copper pot stills to achieve a smooth and refined spirit.
  • Additive-Free: Committed to authenticity, Skorpios 1618 is free from any additives, allowing the pure flavors of agave to shine through.

  • Palate: An ultra-smooth entry reveals a complex interplay of flavors. Crisp citrus notes merge with the creamy texture of butter and the earthy, slightly sweet character of cooked agave. The essence of Jalisco’s terroir is evident in every sip, with subtle undertones of volcanic minerals enhancing the experience.
  • Finish: Long and satisfying, with a clean, crisp finish that lingers on the palate. The traditional, artisanal flavors of agave, earth, and stone persist, leaving a deep and memorable impression.
