Tequila Espírito Bramido is the first tequila made with agave from the terroir of Lago de Chapala (Lake Chapala, Jalisco, Mexico). Oswaldo Gonzalez is a sixth generation agave farmer and master distiller for Bramido. Gonzalez's ancestors have been crafting products (such as belts, hats and small tool bags) from agave fibers since 1869. In June of 2024, Oswaldo's dad decided to take the family cultural heritage to the next level and founded the Disitillery Casa Tequilera Joselito (NOM 1675), in Tizapán El Alto, Jalisco. Since then, Oswaldo has been perfecting his craft, producing Tequila Bramido. Bramido is made exclusively with agaves from the shores of Lake Chapala. They use spring water from their own spring, originating in the mountains of Sierra Del Tigre. This high-proof blanco tequila comes in at 49% abv. It is cooked in stone brick ovens. Tahona crushed. Fermented in stainless steel tanks with open air fermentation and spontaneous wild yeast (which Oswaldo says contributes to their unique tequila profile) and distilled in copper pots. Bramido High Proof Blanco tasting notes: Nose: Minerality, floral, some citrus/grapefruit notes, sweet cooked agave, pepper, anise, some vegetal notes (raw green pepper) and cinnamon Palate: Sweet cooked agave, minerality, citrus, mint, cinnamon and pepper Finish: long, sweet and spicy I was pleasantly surprised with this tequila. Being a new distillery, they exceeded my expectations. This expression is complex. I recommend letting it sit and open for 15 to 20 minutes; the heat dissipiates and more flavors come through. It is very enjoyable and makes you want to go back for more. Happy Sipping! 88 pts

Tasted in a blind with 4 other HP. Thanks to Tequila.diva for the sample.
This is a nice high proof. Earthy, fruity, vegetal, minerality and definitely some sweet agave. Drinks a bit hot at first but super enjoyable.
The most reliable agave awards, with blind judging, praised these tequilas.
Thank you Christine (Tequila Diva) for this sample. Mint, vegetal, agave aromas with some jalapeno coming through in the flavor and a minty green pepper finish. Muy bien and a heck of a deal.
