This high-proof masterpiece comes from the Orendain family, one of the four founding names in tequila history, and carries the name of a legendary Olympic champion horse. While it arrives at a bold 101 proof, it is rested for six months to create a surprisingly silky texture that feels substantial and rich on the tongue. You can truly taste the volcanic soil of the Tequila Valley in its savory, earthy notes, making it a favorite for those who want an authentic and powerful agave experience. It is a humble yet confident bottle that represents over a century of craftsmanship at one of the oldest distilleries in the region.
