A Maestro's Lot From Puerta de Hierro
Lote Maestro — the master's lot — was founded by Gildardo Partida, son and grandson of tequileros, whose signature is embossed on the shoulder of this bottle. It is made at his family's distillery, Tequilera Puerta de Hierro in El Arenal, at the start of the Tequila Valley: 100% Blue Agave, roller-milled and fermented in stainless steel, double distilled, then rested in oak for the reposado's measure of softness and colour. The presentation matches the intent — a decanter-style bottle with a faceted glass stopper, built to look like a selected lot rather than a commodity bottling. Browse the house on the Lote Maestro vendor page.
Tasting Notes
The brand's published description runs: a bright straw colour with golden sparkles; an aroma of cooked agave with gentle woody notes; and a smooth, refined palate of oak and cooked agave. The fuller version of the same copy adds dried fruit and toasted oak, a silky texture, and a long, sweet finish.
How to Enjoy
Pour it neat or with a single cube to keep the cooked-agave-and-oak balance in front, or use it in a reposado Margarita or Paloma where the oak rest earns its keep. The rest of the line — Plata through Extra Anejo — is on the Lote Maestro vendor page, and more rested tequilas are in our tequila collection.
