Crafted from seven-year-old organic agave, this unique batch tells a story of resilience. In January 2023, a wildfire threatened the “El Llano Grande” agave fields, prompting the Santanera team to harvest quickly. The resulting tequila is made from wildfire-scorched agave, giving it a distinctive character.
Batch “Ceniza” (meaning “ash”) celebrates this rare moment in time, capturing the terroir and challenges behind its creation. A micro-batch, authentic, and unrepeatable, it reflects Santanera’s commitment to purity and tradition.
