Review: La Certeza Blanco Tequila

La Certeza Blanco Tequila is no longer produced but it is still available on a limited basis from some online retailers.  La Certeza was imported by Mohawk Distilled Products which was acquired by Heaven Hill Distilleries in 2007.  La Certeza Tequila was created by the Beckmann family, one of Mexico’s oldest tequila families.  The Beckman family traces its lineage to Jose Antonio de Cuervo.  In 1992 Francisco Beckman sold his interest in the family distillery but maintained his interest in the agave fields.  In 2004 he opened his own distillery Tierra de Agaves.  This is the same distillery that creates the Lunazul line of tequila.  La Certeza Blanco is produced with estate grown agave.  Once harvested by hand the agave is slow cooked in autoclave ovens.  After fermenting the tequila is double distilled in traditional copper pot stills.
