Review: Tromba Blanco Tequila
Tromba Blanco Tequila was created by Marco Cedano, the original Master Distiller for Don Julio. Tromba is named for the big spring rains that soak the soil and nourish the agave. Tromba was launched in 2010 and it is small batch distilled at Casa Tequilera de Arandas. While this is a contract production distillery, Marco and his son Rodrigo have complete control over the entire production process. Tromba is made from 100% blue agave grown on estates owned by Don Ruben Gonzalez at an altitude of 5090 feet for 7-12 years. The pinas weighing between 40-70 kilograms are quartered and then steam baked in autoclave ovens and fermented in open air tanks. Tromba Blanco is double distilled and bottled unaged. Their Reposado and Anejo expressions are aged in previously used Jack Daniels barrels. Read more
