Uncut From the Still at NOM 1530
Suerte — Spanish for "luck," named for its founders' fortune in discovering this tequila — is one of the rare brands with its own distillery: Tequilera Simbolo in the highlands of Jalisco, co-owned by the brand's founders and master distiller Pedro Hernandez Barba, whose family formerly ran the distillery. Suerte sits in the roughly one percent of brands still crushing piñas the traditional way with a three-ton tahona stone wheel. Still Strength is that process at its purest — no dilution, just roasted agave flavor at 104 proof.
Tasting Notes
Cooked agave with a vegetal, highland profile: minty minerality, green pepper, and fresh herbs on the nose, with honey, citrus, and white pepper on the palate. The grassy, full-bodied intensity is built for sipping slowly.
How to Enjoy
Neat or over a single large cube, in a blanco tequila tasting alongside Fortaleza Still Strength or G4 108 — the company this bottle keeps. It also makes a formidable high-proof Margarita or Paloma for the agave-obsessed.
