Avión Tequila revamped its packaging in mid-2018 to reflect the single origin for its agave. All agaves used in the production of the tequila is sourced from the town of Jesus Maria, located at 7,000 ft. above sea level in the Los Altos region of Jalisco, Mexico. The tequila is distilled in small batches and finished with a "proprietary" ultra-slow filtration. Each bottle is hand-filled and labeled with batch number, a bottle code, and for its aged products, the number of months the tequila is aged. For the reposado, that is 6 months in used American oak bourbon barrels.

Tasting Notes

"The nose is full of soft buttery agave. It has distinct notes of bitter lemon and lemongrass. At first sip there are lively notes of ripe pear and sweet cherries. Not very spicy, but notes of cooked green pepper and a bit of dried plantain were discovered."
