History
Agave
Dos
Mil
was
born
of
"Agave
Tequilana"
wich
is a
company
rich
with
experience
and
tradition
in
both,
the
cultivation
of
agave
and
the
production
of
fine
tequila,
During
the
late
XIX
century,
our
great,
great,
Grandfather,
Don
Pedro
Camarena,
pioneered
the
widespread
growth
of
agave
in
the
region
of
Jalisco,
Mexico,
known
as
"Los
Altos",
Likewise,
his
tavern
in
Acumbaro,
a
district
of
Jesus
Maria,
Jalisco,
became
the
first
distillery
of
Tequila
in
the
Area.
With
the
experience
of
five
generations
we
proudly
offer
to
you
"Agave
Dos
Mil".
Agaves
Agave
Tequilana
manufactures
Tequila
using
its
own
agave
plantation
which
allows
the
company
to
select
only
the
plants
in
optimal
ripeness.
The
plantations
are
found
in
"Los
Altos"
region
of
Jalisco
where
the
agave
contains
more
sugars
and
produces
a
more
exquisite
taste
than
the
agave
grown
in
others
areas.
Production
Proccess
Cooking
of
the
Agave
Brick
mason
ovens
cook
the
agave
for
30
hours,
after
which
it is
allowed
to
stand
for
another
12
hours.
This
provides
the
right
time
for
cooking
without
any
rush!
Milling
The
milling
is
made
in
metallic
rollers
that
press
the
agave
fibers;
meanwhile
pressured
water
spouts
clean
the
fibers.
Fermentation
The
fermentation
is
carried
out
using
only
the
juices
and
molasses
(sugars)
of
the
agave,
initially
separating
the
pulp.
Distillation
The
Company
Uses
copper
Stills
attached
to
the
original
system
to
conserve
the
authentic
taste
of
the
Tequila.
When
the
liquid
tequila
is
ready,
it
flows
out
of
the
still
through
and
open-air
system
to
avoid
the
condensation
of
aldehyde
impurities.

These
agave
plants
are
five
years
in
the
ground,
half
way
to
maturity.

This
agave
field
is
ready
for
cultivation,
when
cultivation
is
complete,
the
fields
are
re-planted.
