Origin
Tequila is Mexico, and Mexico is Tequila. Both are inseparably connected in long-lasting and rich traditions. Only a spirit which is made from 100% Blue Weber Agaves and produced in certain regions of Mexico can proudly be labelled Tequila. MAYACIEL comes from the small town Amatitán in the heart of Jalisco – the origin of this legendary liquor. Gentle hills and bright blue Agave fields are stretching off to the distant mountain range on the horizon. The combination of dry climate and volcanic soils make the perfect environment for our Agave plants to mature peacefully.
People
Colourful, exciting and simply to fall in love with: Tequila represents all aspects we love about Mexico. Deeply rooted in the country’s culture Tequila is an integral part of society. Some people even say that it is not blood but Tequila that flows through the veins of the Mexican people. Either way, Tequila brings people together and promotes friendship. With MAYACIEL we want to share this joy of life with you.
Cultivation
Shimmering in decent blue, the Agave Tequilana grows majestically on wide fields under the sun of Jalisco, while its precious fruit, the Piña, hides itself underneath the ground. It takes six to eight long years for the Piña to reach the perfect degree of maturity, a combination of aroma and sugar content, to be harvested. Only then it will meet our high quality standards and form the basis for MAYACIEL.
Production
The ultimate taste of Tequila crucially depends upon its production process. Our small, dedicated team handcrafts MAYACIEL in limited batch sizes according to the highest quality standards. Following the harvest, the Piñas are carefully cooked and pressed in order to extract the sweet Agave juice: “Aguamiel” – honey water. After slowly fermenting the Agave juice for three days using natural yeast follows the distillation process which is the most complex step of the production. MAYACIEL is carefully distilled twice. Our perfect relation between heads and tails guarantees the smooth yet fruity and characterful taste of MAYACIEL.
