Azul Force Blanco Tequila Review
The economy size and pricing clues you in that this is for cocktails; the producer, however, PM Spirits, lets you know this is going to aspire to be a little more than value Margarita fuel. Working with Jose Luis Gutierrez, agave from his family’s land is cooked in an autoclave, fermented with ambient yeast, and distilled on a column before being proofed down to 40 percent ABV. If “autoclave” and “column still” are often treated as bad words by tequila geeks, and NOM1615 is currently of little online acclaim, this release is proof that active involvement in all steps of production might actually be the most important step (and that the internet doesn’t know everything!). Fine for sipping, but world-class for Palomas and other long sippers.
