Azuñia Reposado Wins DOUBLE GOLD at SF World Spirits Competition 2018
Azuñia Reposado Wins DOUBLE GOLD at SF World Spirits Competition 2018

GLENDORA, Calif. (PRWEB) May 01, 2018 -- Azuñia* Tequila has won multiple awards at the 2018 San Francisco World Spirits Competition (SFWSC), led by the “Double Gold – World’s Best” designation for its estate-crafted Reposado Tequila. Azuñia Reposado is carefully made with USDA-certified organic, 100-percent Weber Blue agave and rested for eight months in American Oak barrels. The Double Gold award is only presented to the few entries that receive Gold medal ratings by each member of the 48-member judging panel.

“We are thrilled to be awarded Double Gold at the world’s most respected and acclaimed spirits competition,” said Joe Giansante. “…It is especially gratifying to be able to honor our partners at Rancho Miravalle…where so many work tirelessly…and make the best tequila in the world.”

Azuñia has won Gold for its 2-Year Black Reserve and Añejo in past SFWSCs, in addition to this year’s Reposado Double Gold. Azuñia was also one of the very few brands in the 2018 competition to have each expression entered to earn a medal. Silver medals winners include Azuñia Blanco, a pure, un-aged tequila that offers a clean floral nose with hints of agave and lemon, as well as Añejo, aged up to eighteen months in scraped and fired American Oak barrels for hints of vanilla and caramel, and Azuñia Black – a premium extra-aged, double-barreled special reserve Añejo for the tequila aficionado.

“We are thrilled to be awarded Double Gold at the world’s most respected and acclaimed spirits competition,” said Joe Giansante, Azuñia’s managing director. “The entire Azuñia team takes immense pride in not only providing a premium tequila to our customers – but also one that is sustainably farmed, organic, and true to the heritage and traditions of the Tequila Valley region where our agave grows today. It is especially gratifying to be able to honor our partners at Rancho Miravalle in Amatitán, Mexico, where so many work tirelessly and meticulously to farm the best agave and make the best tequila in the world.”

Azuñia Reposado is exceptional for sipping or mixing in cocktails. It is the essence of an Honestly Authentic tequila cultivated from 100-percent Weber Blue Agave, roasted thirty-six hours in traditional clay hornos, fermented naturally with wild-borne yeast, twice distilled, and rested for eight months in American Oak barrels. As with all Azuñia tequilas, no additives or chemicals are added to speed up or force the tequila-making process. The light agave aroma, hints of butterscotch and wood, and slight vanilla finish make the organic Reposado stand out against its competition.

About Azuñia Tequila

Azuñia is smooth, clean craft tequila with authentic flavor from the local terroir in every sip. It is the exclusive export of Agaveros Unidos de Amatitán and its second-generation, family-owned-and-operated Rancho Miravalle estate, which has created exceptional tequila for more than 20 years. Made with 100% pure Weber Blue Agave grown in dedicated fields of the Tequila Valley in the heart of Mexico, we harvest by hand and roast the organic agave in traditional clay hornos to ensure authenticity and depth of flavor. We then finish with a natural, open-air fermentation process and bottle onsite in small batches using a consistent process to deliver field-to-bottle quality.
