Alto Canto Tequila Review - 9,000 Foot Altitude Secret

from Tasting Tequila with Brad · host Bradley Niccum

Alto Canto Tequila Review - 9,000 Foot Altitude Secret Tequila made at 9,000 feet?! In this Alto Canto Blanco review, we break down how high altitude fermentation, traditional methods, and wild conditions impact flavor, aroma, and overall quality. Alto Canto Blanco is one of the most unique tequilas I’ve come across. Produced using traditional methods like brick oven cooking, tahona extraction, and open-air fermentation with fibers, this tequila is made at an extreme elevation of nearly 9,000 feet. At that altitude, everything changes — fermentation slows, the ecosystem shifts, and even the boiling point during distillation is different. So the big question is… Does that actually make better tequila? In this review, I break down: • The story behind the distillery • Traditional production methods • High-altitude fermentation impact • Full tasting notes (nose, palate, finish) • Final verdict If you’re into additive-free tequila, traditional processes, and terroir-driven spirits, this is one you need to know about. Alto Canto Blanco • Brick Oven Cooked • Tahona Crushed • Open-Air Fermentation (with fibers) • Copper Pot Distilled • High Elevation Production (~9,000 ft) This content is for educational and entertainment purposes.
