Organic Batch Siembra began in 2016, as baby agaves were introduced into the volcanic, red clay soil of La Guasima, near the Volcán de Tequila. Matured nearly 6 years, the first harvest began in February 2022. A unique journey from field to fabrica, the mature piñas were cooked for 18 hours in stone ovens before winter’s cooler temperature granted an extended 18-day open-air spontaneous fermentation, yielding a wildly flavorful, aromatic, and deeply terroir-driven tequila.
