1800 Tequila Silver 100% Agave 70 cl

Product Information

I’ve been a whiskey guy all my life, considering tequila to be something solely for use as a mixer and to make margaritas. Apparently, tequila producers that make mixtos don't have to tell you which ingredients they filled the remaining 49% with.

However, it is best to consume the remaining 25% of the bottle within a reasonable time frame to avoid any potential taste changes caused by oxidation or evaporation. This is a blanco, so its gone through the fewest steps to produce and is aged for only two months - but it’s still miles better for cocktails than anything with a worm in it. At the 2008 San Francisco Wine and Spirits Competition, the Silver, Reposado and Añejo tequilas each won the silver medal, while the Milenio and Select Silver both received the bronze medal. Avoid Tequilas made with blends of agave and sugar cane, as they can be unpleasant and lead to an unpleasant hangover.After distillation the newly produced tequila is “rested” for 15 days in American oak barrels, and then a selection of the best barrels are combined to create the 1800 Silver version. As with other liquor varieties, tequila ranges in selection from lower-quality brands to top-shelf ones. Tequila is named after the year that tequila is said to have been first distilled and aged in oak barrels.

In the United States, Canada, the UK, Europe, and Australia, 1800 Silver is bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).A previous 1800 campaign from 2011 featured actor Michael Imperioli in eight different commercials with a straightforward approach coveting the values of an older generation; [21] and in 2009, rapper Rick Ross and his crew, the Triple C's, became brand ambassadors by publicly endorsing Select Silver. Remember, spending a lot on Tequila isn’t necessary for a good Margarita—the right taste and punch are what matter most.
