The Tromba Tequila brand is actually owned and operated out of Canada. Worry not though, the Tequila itself is distilled and aged in Jalisco, Mexico at Tequila el Viejito, S.A de C.V. The word Tromba means small storm or heavy rain.

Very light-handed on the whole, this silver tequila offers a strongly peppery nose to kick things off, though its tempered with lightly bitter lemon peel and a pinch of rosemary to add some greenery to the mix. Refreshing and clean on the palate, lemony citrus notes quickly come to dominate, the peppery character fading into a lighter, white pepper note. Rounded notes of crème brulee and a surprising slug of vanilla take the finish in a new and surprising direction for a Blanco.

Look what has finally landed!
Late last year, we were fortunate enough to be romanced with the prospect of KWM's first exclusive single barrel of Tequila. It came about rather quickly and unexpectedly, during a meeting with the great people from Tromba (named for the rainstorms that bring life to Los Altos). The conversation went a little something like this: "Why don't we send a couple of you down to Guadalajara to pick a barrel?" ... "Oh, yeah, for sure. Hahaha." ... "How soon can you be ready?" ... "Ummm...wait, what?" A couple weeks later, Curt and Harmony were on a plane to Mexico.
While the two of them may have had very yin and yang experiences while in Jalisco (come ask us about it sometime!), they were 100% on the same page when it came to selecting a cask for the shop. After tasting through a great range of Tequila drawn from barrels resting in the Tromba warehouses, one particular cask stood taller than the others: Cask RO-161. This was tasted in cask at eight and a half months of age, but slept a wee bit longer in wood before bottling. It's still a Reposado but was tiptoeing towards being an Anejo. That extra time in wood only made this one better.
Our first Tequila, but definitely not our last.

This Blanco Tequila from Mijenta is made from 100% Agave. The producer behind the Mijenta brand is committed to environmental sustainability. A splendid sipping Tequila and will make a magnificent Margarita too! The glass for bottling is sourced locally to Mijenta's base in Jalisco, with discarded agave waste used to produce the bottle labels, which is a pretty rad way to upcycle.

Sotol, for the uninitiated, is a distant cousin of agave. If you're a Tequila/Mezcal junkie in search of the next interesting thing, you've found it.
Producer Note: "The land guides us to its wisdom, and we have the honor of sharing the spirit of Wild Dasylirion Cedrosanum with you. Our sotol plants come from the volcanic valley of Maika of Nombre de Dios, deep within the heart of the Durango mountains. We produce only small lots, transmitting our soul, pride and joy in every sip of this magnificent sotol."
Edition 003 from 2020. Batch 045VG1.

G4 Tequila is made by 4th Generation Tequila producer Filip Camarena. The Blanco is bottled at 40%.
Producer Description
"The purest expression of Blue Weber agave, our Blanco is authentic and approachable with a delicate minerality and gentle aroma derived from agave and spring water from our own farm, collected rainwater, and our Grandfather’s yeast. These are the only ingredients in G4. Clear, crisp flavors and a silky texture make it a hit with tequila lovers across the board.
We learned the great tradition of tequila making from our ancestors, who have been farming agave in Los Altos de Jalisco since the 1860s. We value what we’ve learned from them, but with deep understanding also comes new ideas. We take pride in combining the best traditional techniques with our own innovative methods. For those ready to enjoy the best tequila our family has ever made, start your new tequila traditions with us."
