Corzo
Appearance
Corzo is a brand of
Spanish Conquistadors.[1]
Due to an ancestral link to the Soctón
, the brand's founding master distiller used the name Corzo out of respect for these Indigenous people.
Corzo is popular in tequila bars.[2]
Varieties
Corzo produces three types of tequila: a Silver, a Reposado, and an Anejo. All three are made from 100% Agave.[3]
Production
Corzo is the only tequila that uses sparging, a process which introduces microscopic air bubbles before bottling and allows the tequila to breathe.[4] All three varieties of Corzo are produced using a triple distillation.[5]
Rankings
Wine Enthusiast Magazine awarded 93 points out of 100,[6] a particularly high score.
