Who makes AHA TORO?

Answered by Marvin Richey

AHA TORO is made by the descendants of Don Pedro Camarena, who has a rich history in the industry spanning over a hundred and twenty years. Don Pedro was a pioneer in the planting of Agave Tequilana Weber Variedad Azul in Los Altos de Jalisco, and his legacy is carried on by his family to this day.

The story of AHA TORO begins with Don Pedro Camarena, our great-great-grandfather, who had a vision and passion for tequila. He recognized the unique qualities of the Agave Tequilana Weber Variedad Azul, also known as the blue agave, and believed that it held the key to producing exceptional tequila. With determination and hard work, he started planting these agave plants in the fertile soil of Los Altos de Jalisco, a region known for its ideal growing conditions.

Don Pedro's dedication to quality and craftsmanship laid the foundation for the AHA TORO brand. He understood that the key to making exceptional tequila lies in the careful cultivation of the agave plants and the meticulous process of distillation. His commitment to excellence has been passed down through the generations, ensuring that AHA TORO continues to produce tequila of the highest quality.

As an expert sommelier and brewer, I have had the privilege of tasting AHA TORO tequila and experiencing its exceptional craftsmanship firsthand. The flavors are complex and well-balanced, with notes of agave, citrus, and a hint of spice. The smoothness of the tequila is a testament to the skill and expertise of the Camarena family.

To ensure the highest quality, AHA TORO tequila is made using traditional methods combined with techniques. The agave plants are carefully selected and harvested at the peak of maturity, ensuring the best flavors are captured. The hearts of the agave, known as piñas, are then roasted in traditional brick ovens, slowly releasing their rich flavors.

After roasting, the piñas are crushed to extract their sweet , which is then fermented and distilled to create the tequila. AHA TORO takes great care in the distillation process, using copper stills to refine and purify the spirit. This attention to detail results in a tequila that is smooth, flavorful, and of the highest quality.

The AHA TORO brand is not just about producing exceptional tequila; it is also about honoring the legacy of Don Pedro Camarena and his dedication to his craft. Each bottle of AHA TORO represents a hundred and twenty years of tequila-making expertise, passed down through the generations. It is a testament to the Camarena family's commitment to producing the finest tequila.

AHA TORO is made by the descendants of Don Pedro Camarena, who have continued his legacy of producing high-quality tequila. With a history spanning over a hundred and twenty years, the Camarena family's dedication to craftsmanship and excellence shines through in every bottle of AHA TORO tequila.
