Tres Generaciones Tequila Plata

This tequila is produced in the lowlands of the state of Jalisco, in the town of Tequila (yes, there is a town called that). The master distiller is the third generation descendant of the original owner. Distillery was founded in 1873. This distillery uses a number of techniques that are different than the more traditional ones. First they pulverize the pinãs before they cook them (and remove the fibers and detritus from the resulting pulped pinãs) then they use huge steel ovens that look more like lumber drying kilns and they use closed (or at least covered) steel tanks to ferment the mosto to quickly mass produce their tequila. The steel ovens and other shortcuts don’t yield the same results in my opinion.

The triple distillation results in a tequila that is much smoother on the palate and has a more refined taste. We obtain a triple distillate in the rectification process by placing the heart back in the still. Then, the rectification process is repeated, getting a third distillate of the product.Sauza Tequila Import Company is owned by Beam Suntory, headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. Their products include Sauza, Conmemorativo, Hornitos and Tres Generaciones.
The agave juices are then distilled, which purifies the liquid and concentrates the alcohol in the mixture. Tequila is typically distilled twice. The first distillation produces a cloudy liquid called the ordinario. The second distillation produces the clear silver tequila, which is then ready to be aged and bottled.To make tequila the mosto must be distilled at least twice and this may be by a combination of pot and column stills or traditionally, be entirely using pot stills.
To separate a mixture of liquids, the liquid can be heated to force components, which have different boiling points, into the gas phase. The gas is then condensed back into liquid form and collected. Repeating the process on the collected liquid to improve the purity of the product is called double distillation.
