The sustainable, additive-free, luxury brand is, as the name suggests, a suave, ultra-premium range of sipping tequilas.<\/p>\n<h4>There are four expressions ranging in price from \u00a395 to \u00a32000.<\/h4>\n<p>SUAVE Blanco (36.4% ABV; RRP \u00a395)<br \/>\nSUAVE Lunar (36.4% ABV; \u00a3109)<br \/>\nSUAVE Reposado (36.4% ABV; \u00a3160)<br \/>\nSUAVE Ultra A\u00f1ejo (36.4% ABV; RRP \u00a32000).<\/p>\n<p>This impeccable collection is an elevated drinking experience, created for sipping. It couldn\u2019t be further from the party tequilas that were once so familiar in the UK. SUAVE Tequilas are smooth, complex, full-bodied, additive-free, and Kosher certified. This ultra-premium range of sipping tequilas is as authentic as they come, hence the elevated price tag. The company sees through the creation of its liquids from field to bottle, and even cultivates its own agave seedlings (the plant from which tequila is made). The liquids are differentiated by a strict policy of using no additives or colourants, a mission which is at the heart of all that this company does. Responsibility, authenticity, craftsmanship, and taste \u2013 plus respect for the environment.<\/p>\n<h4>Strict quality standards<\/h4>\n<p>Another reason for the high prices of these liquids compared with many on the market is the fact that the company uses only the very heart of the agave pina. All the green outer surface is stripped away so that only the pure white core of the pinas makes it into production. These strict quality standards are designed to minimise the amount of green leaf stalk that is left. This means a purer alcohol results, creating a glorious product that avoids the prospect of the tequila hangover that will be all too familiar to many people. All this time and skill adds to the cost of an ultra-premium liquid.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s no wonder SUAVE won a Gold Award in one of the top international competitions last year for its Reposado expression. As an example of the attention to detail, SUAVE\u2019s makers age their Ultra A\u00f1ejo for six years. This compares with the four years required for the designated category of \u2018Extra A\u00f1ejo\u2019. The barrels are made using American Oak, delivering notes of vanilla and warm spices. They are used only once and, to demonstrate this, each bottle comes with small wooden staves from the barrel in which it matured, which are presented in an organza pouch. This is the most expensive tequila in the range.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-21700 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/suave-nibbles-1.jpg\" alt=\"SUAVE Tequila and nibbles\" width=\"716\" height=\"477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/suave-nibbles-1.jpg 1326w, https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/suave-nibbles-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/suave-nibbles-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/suave-nibbles-1-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mostlyfood.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/suave-nibbles-1-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 716px) 100vw, 716px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The packaging is an elegant, sculptural, organically shaped bottle, with the different styles denoted by the colours of the labels and closures. Its attention to excellence as well as sustainability has earned SUAVE a coveted Butterfly Mark from Positive Luxury \u2013 a badge of honour awarded to only two other tequilas.<\/p>\n<h4>Traditional methodology<\/h4>\n<p>Deborah Ernst, a director of family-owned SUAVE Tequila, says: \u201cLuxury doesn\u2019t mean extravagance. It\u2019s about responsibility, authenticity, craftsmanship, and taste \u2013 plus respect for the environment. We hope people will in turn respect our pride in our traditional methodology and artisanal approach to everything from the agave cultivation to the creation of the tequilas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this fast-paced world, for us it\u2019s all about slowing down from time to time and just enjoying the moment\u2026 whether that\u2019s taking a break and slowly sipping and enjoying our liquids or the unhurried process by which they are made and matured.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You can buy SUAVE Tequila at good online retailers including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewhiskyexchange.com\/\">The Whisky Exchange<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.masterofmalt.com\/\">Master of Malt<\/a> and you can find SUAVE in some of the UK\u2019s top venues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the most expensive and sustainable, sets a new standard in craftsmanship.
