What is Gran Nota?
It began with a simple question. What if a master whiskey distiller reenvisioned tequila? The result is a peerless experience. Hand-selected 100% blue weber agaves from the highlands of Jalisco are slow-roasted in traditional brick ovens. Five-step roller milling process and a five-day fermentation using a unique whiskey yeast awakens notes of grilled pineapple and citrus. Finally, a proprietary “Triple Oak” aging process for 5-14 months in a blend of three barrels – American oak, European oak and Ex-Whiskey Oak – transforms it into a reposado with surprising complexity and depth.
In the hands of a whiskey master, agave truly rises to its grand note.
