Toast National Tequila Day with the ultra-premium tequila that defines a new standard of quality and taste, Tequila Avión®.
Produced with fifth generation agave growers from the finest Blue Weber agave found in the highest regions of Jalisco, Mexico, Tequila Avión’s distinct flavors are achieved through a combination of slow-roasting at lower temperatures to protect the natural flavors of the Avión Agave. A proprietary ultra-slow filtration process creates an unusually smooth taste profile making it perfect to enjoy neat or add to your favorite celebratory cocktail. Tequila Avión is available in Silver, Reposado Añejo, Avión Espresso Liqueur and now Avión Reserva 44. Avión was named Best Tasting Unaged White Spirit and Best Tasting Tequila in the World at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
Cheers!
