Cierto Tequila Named Bartender Favorite by VinePair

By Maddy Sweitzer-Lammé

“The best new tequila that’s earned a spot on our bar is Cierto. We are one of the first to carry these beautiful products exclusively in D.C., and I am so excited to be able to share them with the community.

What makes Cierto Tequila so special is the process: It’s made with pure water filtered through ancient volcanic springs, distilled twice in copper pots and column stills, and aged in French Limousin oak casks that held Cognac and Armagnac.

The results are outstanding, and each expression is so unique. I love the luxurious mouthfeel of the blanco, the cinnamon-spice honey quality of the reposado, and the rich, cocoa, and caramel notes of the añejo. The extra añejo is like an absolutely delightful crème brûlée.” – Sara Chaudhuri, lead bartender, BRESCA, Washington, D.C.
