Luxco, Inc. announces the launch of Cortada Smoked Tequila – a new premium tequila cut with a whisper of smoke. Offering both Blanco and Reposado varieties, Cortada Smoked Tequila is available exclusively in Denver and through e-commerce in partnership with Shared Pour. Cortada Smoked Tequila Blanco retails for $49.99 USD and Cortada Smoked Tequila Reposado retails for $54.99 USD. When fourth-generation Master Distiller Graciela "Grace" Gonzalez discovered a unique recipe passed down by her great-grandfather, she knew she had to try it. Created using hand-selected, estate-grown agave, the already cooked agave is smoked with Mesquite and Mexican Oak, creating a truly unique flavor. "Cortada represents generations of masterful craft and innovation," said Gonzalez. "It's elegant, but also has a spicy side. Denver is a perfect launch city – a place with rich, cultural history that's always pushing the envelope to create what comes next. I'm excited to see what the exceptionally inventive local mixologists create with Cortada." Cortada begins in Los Altos and the Valley area of Jalisco, Mexico, where fully mature, 100% Blue Weber Agave are hand-selected for harvest. Within hours it is cooked and smoked over Mexican Oak and Mesquite wood, infusing the agave with just enough smoke for a spicy finish that perfectly complements the sweet, earthy flavors of agave.Both Cortada expressions offer unique tasting profiles. Cortada Blanco Tequila is the purest expression of the agave, enhanced by a whisper of smoke in the finish. With notes of ripe pineapple, agave molasses and a wood-fired spiciness, it is a smooth and versatile spirit. Cortada Reposado Tequila deepens the agave experience. Aged in bourbon barrels, the smoky finish is accented by hints of dark chocolate, pepper, and clove, creating a rich, balanced spirit for those seeking a departure from the whiskey norm.While both Cortada Smoked Tequila Blanco and Smoked Tequila Reposado are excellent neat or over ice, this tequila also brings new life to classic Margaritas and Old Fashioneds and invites inspired mixology like a Smoky Ranch Water.Smokey Ranch Water Recipe 1.5oz Cortada Soda water Fresh lime Either a rim of smoked salt, or a grapefruit bitter float Dehydrated lime or grapefruit garnish "Cortada allows us to do something new with tequila," said Cortada Brand Manager Kayleigh Longo. "Smoked spirits are igniting fresh creativity across the spirits world – and Cortada brings that bold innovation to tequila. The way just a hint of smoke interacts with the agave makes it a must-try for anyone seeking a spicier sipping spirit or cocktail experience."Visit Cortadatequila.com for more information or visit sharedpour.com to order outside of the Denver metropolitan area.About Cortada TequilaGenerations of excellence inspired us to try something different.
