The Ghost Story

Our love of tequila runs deep - not just the taste of tequila, but the culture, the process, the history, and the talented people who craft this incredible spirit.

100% blue agave tequila with a pinch of Ghost pepper which, unlike other peppers, gives a quick hit of heat followed by a fruity, smooth finish. Never overpowering. Always delicious. Ghost Tequila makes it easy to serve/make Perfectly Spicy™ sips and stories every time.

Heritage

Known for bringing high-quality, award-winning tequilas to life, our distillery Casa Maestri in the picturesque town of Tequila, Mexico, preserves traditional methods of harvesting, cooking, macerating, fermentation, and single-batch distillation, while integrating modern, sustainable techniques to ensure purity in every drop.

Sustainability

Our dedication to sustainability extends beyond our commitment to using only top-quality, sustainably farmed agave. Through close relationships with the region's top local growers, we ensure an ample agave supply for generations to come.

Additionally, all of our bottles are made from recycled glass, reflecting our commitment to environmental responsibility and reducing our carbon footprint.

Process

Harvesting

Each agave piña is expertly harvested by Jimadores. The pencas are closely trimmed to the heart. This elevated technique eliminates any bitter taste and creates a cleaner, more refined final flavor.
Cooking

The carefully trimmed agave is then placed into hand-built brick ovens where it is slowly roasted for more than two days. Embracing the traditional art of ‘slow cooking’ helps retain the naturally sweet and mellow flavors while preventing the cooked agave from caramelizing.
Macerating

The cooked agave then passes through a modern roller mill process where it’s squeezed multiple times to separate the juice from the fibers, releasing the natural agave sweetness. To maintain a consistent sugar concentration, we combine the agave juice with de-ionized, reverse-osmosis treated water.
Fermenting

Perfection doesn’t happen overnight. That’s why our fermentation process takes 48-60 hours on average, while many mass-produced tequilas are only fermented for 10-12 hours at a time. This slow approach results in a better quality tequila with a more complex, full-bodied flavor.

Distilling and Blending

We utilize a double-distillation process in traditional copper pot stills, to allow important characteristics such as taste, aroma, and body to fully develop. The first distillation extracts impurities and concentrates flavors, while the second enriches the alcohol content to its final state. After distillation, we carefully blend a pinch of ghost pepper essence into the finished tequila before bottling.
