“At Santa Familia Tequila, we honor a time-honored legacy of crafting exceptional tequila while embracing a profound commitment to sustainability and ethical practices.”
Discover the meticulous process behind Santa Familia Tequila’s exceptional craftsmanship. From hand-selecting matured agave to slow steam-roasting in traditional brick ovens and patient fermentation, every step is a labor of love. Our slow distillation process and meticulous filtration result in a completely organic product with unmatched quality and flavor.
At Santa Familia, we believe in crafting a
unique and high-quality tequila, starting
with our agave. We carefully select
agave that has matured for
6 to 8 years and with 23-28 brix
sugar content, harvested just
before the rainy season, and
trimmed close to the heart to
ensure a clean and distinct
flavor.
We take pride in our handcrafted and organic tequila. Our slow distillation process, using pot
stills for approximately 5 hours per pot, creates a crisp, clean, and smooth finish. We also utilize a filtration process to remove color, resulting in a
completely organic product with no artificial sweeteners and a taste that rivals some of the
finest tequilas made.
At Santa Familia Tequila, we honor tradition by slowly steam-roasting our agave/piña hearts for 36-54 hours in thick- walled brick ovens. This centuries-old technique softens the fibers and transforms the carbohydrates into fermentable sugars while retaining the natural mellow flavors of our carefully grown agave. We combine this “horno cooked agave” with autoclavecooked agave to create a unique and handcrafted tequila blend.
The average fermentation requires 48- 60 hours. Natural occurring yeast is added to the ‘wort’ or agave juice and ‘beer’ is created containing an alcohol content of between 5 and 9 percent alcohol/volume. Many mass-produced tequilas are fermented for only 10 – 12 hours.
At Santa Familia Tequila, we honor the legacy of crafting exceptional tequila while embracing a profound commitment to sustainability and ethical practices.
