A testament to its name, Escasa is dedicated to the opulence of scarcity, the result of hundreds of years of knowledge, distilled into one bottle.
Escasa showcases the beauty of tequila when crafted with care, highlighting – not masking – the flavors intrinsic to the soil of Jalisco, Mexico.
The journey of the spirit of Escasa begins in Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico. Each year, hand-selected 100% Blue Weber agave is exclusively secured from a single estate as determined by Master Distiller, Graciela Gonzalez.
Within hours of harvest, our agave is cooked for a minimum of 24 hours before milling and pressing. Introducing Begazo fibers from the milled agave to the fermentation tanks deepens our tequila’s flavor dimension.
Triple distillation removes lingering impurities before our Tequila Blanco is ready for bottling.
But some tequila is destined for more. Escasa Tequila Reposado is rested in Albariño barrels from Spain, a first of its kind in the tequila industry.
Graciela Gonzalez
Master Distiller, Escasa
As a fourth generation Master Distiller, Graciela “Grace” Gonzalez is proud to be the first woman in her family to serve in the role, inspired by her father and 150+ years of family heritage. Simply put, Grace’s passion for tequila runs in her blood.
Her life’s dedication to the craft led to the creation of Escasa. Through her meticulous innovation, Escasa is the first to be crafted through a triple-distillation process, using only the purest water, estate-grown agave, heirloom yeast, and aged in Albariño barrels from Rias Baixas, Spain. Escasa stands as a testament to Grace Gonzalez’s legacy; a masterpiece crafted for those who appreciate unparalleled quality and distinction, the perfect balance of heritage and innovation.
Discover the refinement of Escasa Tequila Blanco, a veritable tribute to the curated process by Graciela Gonzalez. Our hand-selected 100% Blue Weber agave, sourced from a single estate, delivers a full-bodied, spicy finish, enhanced by the Begazo methodology used throughout fermentation. Once finished, triple distillation of the Escasa spirit results in a crystal-clear, unparalleled expression of our luxurious tequila.
Escasa Tequila Reposado is a perfectly balanced combination of the earthiness of Escasa Tequila Blanco paired with the citrusy, acidic essence of Albariño wine casks. Albariño wine, known for its refreshing stone fruit flavor cues including pineapple, complements the piquant, mineral essence of the Blanco, creating a remarkable expression meant to be savored.
Best served chilled and neat in a flute glass.
Escasa can also be enjoyed over a large rock with an orange peel garnish, or in a classic cocktail such as the Margarita or Paloma with an Escasa twist — think unique garnish or an added spice. Here are some “ways to enjoy” Escasa:
Escasa is made for the few. Each year, a single estate is chosen for the harvest of our 100% Blue Weber agave, determined by fourth-generation Master Distiller Grace Gonzalez. Our agave is then cooked for a minimum of 24 hours before milling and pressing. During fermentation, Begazo fibers are added to the tanks to deepen the agave flavor. Our tequila is then triple distilled before bottling. Our exquisite Escasa Tequila Reposado is aged in Albariño barrels from Rias Baixas, Spain, resulting in a uniquely crafted tequila that innately reflects the character of its journey from soil to bottle.
