Tapatio 110 Proof Blanco Tequila (1 Liter)

Don Felipe passed the business to his son, Felipe J. Camarena, who in turn passed it on to his daughters; Lilianna and Gabriela, and to his son; Carlos. As Master Distiller, Carlos maintains today the standards of excellence set down by his grandfather.

La Altena Distillery reached a proud milestone on the 7th of July 2012: 75 years of handcrafting one of the world's finest tequilas. Many of the methods used to create this fantastic spirit are still the same as a century ago. For much of the production, a large stone wheel, a Tahona, is used to crush the cooked agave plants, with the resulting juice and agave fibers mixed in a barrel by foot before fermentation and distillation.

Tapatio is double distilled to as close to bottle strength as possible so that the Tequila retains as much of its natural character as possible. In recent years the Tequilas from La Altena distillery including Tapatio, Ocho and El Tesoro brands have become a phenomenon in the UK on-trade and they now enjoy an unrivaled reputation for quality, integrity and authenticity amongst bartenders and Tequila connoisseurs alike.
