Siempre Exclusivo Muerto Tequila 750ml

The latest ultra-limited release in Siempre’s Exclusivo series, crafted for those who seek the extraordinary. Co-founder Alex Lacroix and Master Tequilero Sergio Cruz (of the renowned Vivanco family distillery, NOM 1414) have pushed the boundaries of traditional tequila production, delivering an experience unlike anything seen in modern tequila.

Muerto embarks on a world-first journey by allowing the yeast to die, evolve, and rest over a three-week “afterlife,” building complexity much like the malolactic fermentation found in the finest rums. The process is enhanced by the Mozart method, playing classical music during fermentation, which helps deepen the connection between agave and yeast.

Two Distinctive Batches:

• Batch One: Agave from the Puerta de la Carreta fields, wild-fermented for 28 days.
• Batch Two: Agave from Capulin Verde, wild-fermented with fibers for 32 days.

These batches are combined at still-strength, filtered through volcanic rocks, and bottled at a powerful 109 proof without dilution. The result is a rich, bold tequila with layered complexity, perfect for aficionados who appreciate the raw, unfiltered expression of artisanal tequila.

Only 4,500 bottles available, offering a rare chance to experience the afterlife of tequila.

Tasting Notes

Nose: An exciting blend of jalapeño, spicy pineapple, and green apple, balanced by notes of fresh-cut grass, wet cement, and cayenne pepper. These vibrant aromas evolve with hints of passionfruit and delicate florals.

Palate: Bold and complex, the palate reveals a harmony of cooked agave and arugula, with layers of tropical fruits upfront. Creamy spices and citrus zest follow, finishing with rich, balanced cooked agave flavors.

Mouthfeel: Full-bodied and creamy, the 109-proof tequila offers a powerful yet surprisingly smooth finish. The high proof integrates beautifully with the layered flavors, making for a rich, satisfying journey in every sip.

ABV: 54.5%
