Yep, the good stuff is made from 100% agave. I just watched a cooking

show Saturday morning that was all about how Tequila is made. It was

fascinating to learn about the natural fermentation process and the aging.

 

There are three types of tequila based on aging:

Blanco - not aged or stored in stainless steel

Reposado - aged 6-12mo in oak barrels

Anejo - aged over 12mo in oak barrels

 

Donna is a fellow tequila lover.
