This is the best tequila in the world and it's from Jalisco
The 2020 virtual edition of the World Tequila Awards announced the winners of the best tequila - Blanco, Reposado, Añejo, and Extra Añejo.
No more arguing about which is the best tequila in the world. The most recent edition of the World Tequila Awards 2020 has already given its answer: the event that takes place every year selects the best of this internationally recognized beverage category in four categories: White, Reposado, Añejo, and Extra Añejo.
There, Cierto Tequila won the Best Tequila in the World and also won the category of Best Extra Añejo. The judges described it as follows: "Hints of cognac are mixed with agave in the nose. A great balance of wood and spirit on the tongue while maintaining a soft and smooth texture. Classy and sober, with a soft and gentle finish".
This was not the only good news for the brand, as it was also named "Distiller of the Year" at the 2020 San Diego International Wine & Spirit Challenge, where it also won a total of nine medals.
