Review: Tributo Blanco Tequila
Tributo Blanco Tequila was launched in 2011. The name and the tequila itself is a tribute from a son to his father. In 2000 Hector Barreto Sr. a founder and former president of the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce bought property in Jalisco Mexico and started planting agave on 50 acres. His dream was to produce tequila. After dying in 2004 his son Hector Barreto Jr. immersed himself in learning the process of creating tequila from the field, to distilling, bottling, marketing, and distribution.
