Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Q: Why is this called "Joven" if it's an unaged tequila?
A: This is a great question. While "Joven" often refers to a blend of aged and unaged tequilas, Cazcanes uses the term "No. 7 Joven" for their flagship unaged, 100% agave Blanco (or Silver) expression. It is their pure, unadulterated base spirit from which all their other aged expressions are born.
Q: What does "additive-free" signify?
A: While regulations allow for up to 1% of certain additives (like coloring or sweeteners) in tequila, an "additive-free" certification means that the tequila is guaranteed to be made from only agave, water, and yeast, with all flavors coming naturally from the ingredients and production process.
Q: Is this tequila good for sipping?
A: Absolutely. Unlike many mass-market Blanco tequilas that are designed only for mixing, Cazcanes No. 7 Joven is crafted with a complexity and smoothness that makes it an excellent sipping tequila for those who enjoy a pure, agave-forward experience.
Q: Where can I purchase Cazcanes No. 7 Joven?
A: This is a premium, craft tequila. We recommend contacting our preferred retail partner, Nestor Liquor, to inquire about their inventory and availability.
