    This Añejo Is Different | La Pulga Añejo Tequila Review (Additive-Free, NOM 1068)

    La Pulga Añejo Tequila review from NOM 1068. Additive-free Añejo tequila made with 100% Blue Weber agave, dual-cooked agave, citrus-yeast fermentation, and aged 18–22 months in American oak. n this episode of Tasting Tequila with Brad, we take a deep dive into La Pulga Spirits Añejo Tequila — an additive-free Añejo crafted with intention, balance, and patience. Produced at NOM 1068 using 100% Blue Weber agave grown at 6,400 feet in the Highlands of Jalisco, this Añejo is aged 18–22 months in second-use American oak barrels, allowing the agave to remain front and center. What makes La Pulga different is the process: • 50/50 dual cook (stone horno + autoclave) • Single-press extraction • Open-air fermentation with proprietary yeast cultured from citrus orchards • Rock music played during fermentation to agitate yeast • Double distilled in pot stills • Oxygenated cold-rest finishing for enhanced mouthfeel On the nose, expect roasted agave and ripe fruit. The palate delivers vanilla, oak, cocoa, and subtle sweetness. The finish is long, smooth, and endlessly rewarding — a true sipping Añejo. I also reference my in-depth interview with Sarah and David Wiley, where we talk about the philosophy behind the brand and why La Pulga refuses shortcuts. If you enjoy additive-free tequila, process-driven brands, and honest tequila reviews — this one’s for you. Let me know in the comments: Do you prefer bold, oak-forward Añejos — or refined, agave-first sipping tequilas?

    This Reposado Takes Risks | Tequila Arriesgado Reposado Review

    This Tequila Arriesgado Reposado review dives into a reposado that takes risks. Aged in French oak and rooted in tradition, this tequila puts agave first — not the barrel. In this review, I’m tasting Tequila Arriesgado Reposado, a bold, agave-forward reposado that refuses to play it safe. Aged for approximately three months in French oak, Arriesgado Reposado focuses on balance, restraint, and showcasing cooked agave rather than heavy barrel influence. This approach creates a clean, expressive reposado that rewards slow sipping and careful tasting. If you want to understand why this tequila tastes the way it does, be sure to watch my full interview with Roberto Real, where we go deep into the philosophy, production decisions, and risks behind Arriesgado. Tasting Notes: • Cooked agave • Honey and light caramel • Citrus peel and gentle spice • Soft oak with a fresh, balanced finish If you enjoy honest tequila reviews, additive-free tequila discussions, and deep dives into how tequila is actually made, hit subscribe and turn on notifications.
