Review: Curamia Tequila Blanco
Curamia Tequila Blanco was launched in the US October 1 2021. The brand was created by Dafna Mizrahi, an accomplished chef originally from Jalisco. Curamia is not only 100% female owned but it is distilled at Distileria Leyros where 95% of the workers are also female. This distillery crafts several tequila brands including Casa Dragones, Republic, Casazul, and Dahlia. Curamia is made from 100% agave grown in Los Valles, and water sourced from underground natural aquifers 70 meters beneath the earth surface. Once cooked and cooled the extracted juice is fermented with and without agave fibers in a stainless steel tank. It is double distilled and hand bottled at the distillery with no additives. The aroma leads with peach, and cooked agave. Additional time brings out herbal roasted agave and sea salt. The sweet agave entry is joined by peach, vanilla, and orange building to a bright peach and lime peak. It fades with saline, roasted agave, and white pepper and finishes semi-dry with mineral, bittersweet peach skin, sea salt, and jalapeno pepper. Curamia Tequila Blanco enters smooth and fruity with a soft mineral water feel, but finishes bittersweet, salty, warm, and peppery.
