Corazón is Tequila so beautiful it makes the heart skip a beat.
The Reposado picked up a Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2020 and a Gold Medal at the World Tequila Awards 2020. Rested in American oak for 6-8 months it tastes like roasted agave pumpkin seeds on the comal sweet vanilla white pepper dried fruit and eating oily Marcona almonds on the lawn as a spring breeze blows through the herb patch in your direction. Sip this herby and nutty Tequila neat preferably accompanied by Sikil P'ak and totopos or tacos topped with pipián verde and coriander. Alternatively it pairs wonderfully with tonic water if you fancy something longer.
Corazón Tequilas are crafted at Casa San Matias a family-owned distillery in Jalisco with a 130-year-long history. Each one is a single estate Tequila created by hand using 100% Blue Weber agave and an old family recipe. Corazón means ‘heart’ in Spanish and refers to the piña of the agave plant but also the passion and enthusiasm that Carmen Villarreal and her team put into every bottle. One thing that really sets Casa San Matias apart in a such a male-dominated industry is its inclusive culture – it has been granted Gender Equity Model certification by Mexico’s National Women’s Institute. Another is that after the second distillation oxygen is infused into the Tequila which creates a softer spirit and lifts the delicate nuances that are often lost in their competitors’ versions. Corazón would make a heartfelt gift for any Tequila aficionado.
