Did you know that high-quality, premium-grade, 100% agave tequila can actually help you lose weight? It also aids in digestion, promotes gut health, and is less likely to give you a hangover than cheaper, mixed agave tequila. Suave Premium Tequila is a top-shelf organic sipping tequila with an old world, tradition-led distillation process that follows the lunar phases, which, according to Mexican folklore, increases the success rate of a healthy crop yield.
Suave Tequila strives to embody the gold standard of the industry, above eye-level tequila that wants to remind us all that tequila doesn’t have to mean spring break in Pensacola. Carefully crafted tequila made without shortcuts is healthy, classy, and as deep-layered as wine to learn about. It can have millions of different taste profiles, aromas, textures, and other complexities that stand alone on the rocks or suit mixed cocktails.
Suave Premium Tequila is 100% organic, without additives, NON-GMO, and even Kosher-certified. It is rested in American oak barrels with a double distillation, artisan process for higher purity. Best of all, it all comes from the same single estate in the highlands of Jalisco, Mexico, ensuring equal quality across the board in every small batch.
Lunar Phases
Suave Tequila’s Lunar Cycle Concept is an ancestral agricultural methodology dating back centuries ago; it is a folklore that permeates through cultures and transcends the concept of time. The word-of-mouth legend states that if you plant crops such as corn on a full moon, they won’t grow correctly because of the said gravitational pull of the moon. Therefore, Suave’s founders believe the legend rolls over to the sugars in their agave plants as well, so they plant and harvest their agaves according to the Lunar cycles. Harvest season for them is always during a new moon, which is the complete opposite time as a full moon.
“We have our signature expression called Lunar, a silver, that we pour into a barrel on a full moon and take it out 28 days later when the next full moon strikes,” said Jaime Villalobos Sauza, descendant of one of the oldest tequila families in the industry (Sauza Tequila), and now-partner distiller of Suave Tequila. This technique “captures the essence of both dualities and comes out like a perfect blend between a blanco and a reposado.”
In addition to his family history, Sauza has extensive experience as an official tequila taster for the Tequila Regulatory Council (CRT) and is president of The Organization of Sommeliers of Mexico (ONSOM). Together with the founders of Suave, Sauza is producing one of the world’s most distinguished sipping tequilas the industry has to offer.
Weight Loss and More
Did you know 100% agave tequila is in fact gluten-free? According to the Good Health Centre, “Tequila has a particular kind of sugar in it called agavins, which possess some weight-loss properties. The special molecular structure of agavins doesn’t raise the blood sugar, meaning that many of the calories pass through the system unused, unlike other alcohol sugars, helping dissolve fats and stimulate the metabolism.”
The founders of Suave — which was nominated as Tequila of the Year in 2020 and has won awards in all major contests such as the San Francisco World Spirits Competition — rightfully believe that the time and care they put into their product makes it substantially superior in terms of health benefits.
The Suave founding family’s strong agricultural background makes them perfect candidates to work with such long-process crops. Agave takes at least five years to mature, and the family-run business started growing their own agave in 2013.
Additionally, the hottest debate right now in the liquor and spirits industry is the potential for tequila to help diabetics manage their blood sugar levels. The general consensus is a resounding ‘yes’, but only if it is fully 100% agave, another checkmark for Suave Tequila being gluten-free.
“Our organic sipping tequila is made in a holistic way, using all the traditional methods possible,” said a Suave associate. “Our production methods lower the final methanol content in the liquid which in turn reduces the likelihood of a headache in case of excessive consumption.”
