Description
Padre Azul Tequila was founded by HP Eder and Adriana Alvarez Maxemin in 2016. While attending university in Heidelberg, Germany, the pair met, fell in love and began to build a life together. Eder, from the Austrian Alps and Maxemin, from Jalisco, Mexico each experienced a culture shock which catapulted them into a blend of their backgrounds with a mexican-crafted tequila inspired by Austria. Eder held a passion for distillation prior to this meeting of two worlds, and had inherited this passion from his father and his production of high-quality Vogelbeerschnaps, a traditional Austrian spirit made out of rowan berries. Just as he experienced the crafting of spirits with a recipe that had been passed down for generations, he witnessed the same passion and time-honored tradition in authentic Mexican tequila. Wanting to bring a true representation of this spirit to Europe, Eder, aided by his wife Adriana and her father/his father-in-law set out to craft their own premium tequila, thus beginning Padre Azul.
Silver tequila is their youngest expression. Crafted with agaves aged from eight to ten years old and bottled immediately following distillation, this tequila holds an intensely fresh agave flavor and aroma. Each bottle is handcrafted and topped with a skull casted from solid metal, honoring the symbol of la cavalera, a motif of Dia de Muertos. Padre Azul Silver is crystal clear, with small hues of yellow, reflecting the years of Mexican Sunshine within each bottle. On the nose is cooked agave, vanilla and coconut with hints of grapefruit, lemon, mint, cherry and pineapple. The palate is incredibly smooth and bold with the cooked agave aromas carrying over onto the velvety palate. The finish is intense, sweet, and smooth. Enjoy this low calorie spirit with friends and family and sip by itself or in your
