Cultura 100 Joven: One of the Best Tequilas I've Ever Tasted?

Cultura 100 Joven: One of the Best Tequilas I've Ever Tasted?

What happens when high-proof Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo come together in one incredible tequila?

In this review, Brad takes an early look at Cultura 100 Joven, a soon-to-be-released tequila bottled at 49% ABV. After spending time tasting this unique blend, he explains why this Joven could become one of the most exciting new tequilas for agave lovers.

Cultura 100 Joven is produced at NOM 1414 by master distiller Sergio Cruz, using Highland Blue Weber Agave and traditional production methods. The tequila combines their high-proof Blanco, high-proof Reposado, and a single-barrel Añejo to create a complex Joven with layers of agave, oak, spice, and sweetness.

In this review, we explore:

One of the most interesting things about Cultura 100 Joven is how the high-proof Blanco brings intense agave character and minerality, while the Reposado and Añejo components add layers of oak, caramel, vanilla, cinnamon, and complexity.

If you're a fan of Joven tequila, high-proof tequila, additive-free tequila, traditional tequila production, or new tequila releases, this is one bottle you'll want to keep an eye on.
