Tierra Noble 4° Cuarto is a cristalino tequila named for the fourth quarter of the year, the season of celebration. It is made by Premium de Jalisco in Mazamitla (NOM 1558) from blue Weber agave grown in southeastern Jalisco.
The agave is cooked in autoclaves, its juice extracted with a roller mill and fermented in stainless steel tanks with spring water. Reposados and añejos are tasted carefully until the best are found; the chosen tequilas, aged up to 12 months in American white oak, then leave the barrel and are distilled a third time to polish their notes and aromas while respecting their identity, before being filtered crystal clear.
In the glass it is clean and crystalline, with gleams of gold when backlit and a notable body that forms lasting legs. The aroma has strong character, with sweet, fruity green apple, a discreet presence of cooked agave and a hint of chocolate. The palate is well balanced, with citrus, clove and fruit, and a buttery vanilla finish that is silky, smooth and long, with tertiary notes of wood.
Its tall, embossed bottle and black gift tube make it a natural choice for the holidays and year-end celebrations.
Enjoy it chilled and neat, or over a large ice cube.
