ElVelo Tequila - Why do we need another Tequila??? - Behind the Brand
Tequila is one of the fastest growing categories out there, so why on Earth would we need another brand? Inspired by a recent post by Doug Price (aka the Agave Social Podcast @iamdougprice ) - highlighting ElVelo, Director of Education @brandon.altamar takes us through the ethos of ElVelo Tequila, from field to bottle.
While ElVelo Tequila has been around since 2019, it has only recently begun to really take off an garner attention from a number of different bars, bartenders, and consumers.
ElVelo Tequila was recently named one of the "Best Blanco Tequilas" by the New York Times / Wirecutter, is consistently highlighted in a number of different "Best Blanco Tequila" lists; especially those ...

What is that ingredient? Advice for navigating Craft Cocktail Menus
Просмотров 41Месяц назад
Craft Cocktails can be intimidating. Ingredients like Falernum, Orgeat, Chartreuse, and Absinthe are certainly familiar to bartenders, those obsessed with cocktails and cocktail culture, but to the everyday guest - may be intimidating. Not to mention, new brands that guests aren't familiar with - what's to say you'll like this new Bourbon Brand over an old mainstay favorite??? Join Altamar Bran...

High N' Wicked Kentucky Whiskeys
Просмотров 372 месяца назад
Why #Kentucky for these #Whiskeys? 🥃 We knew when High n Wicked was being conceived that our flagship Bourbon and Rye Whiskeys had to be from Kentucky. Why? Because of agricultural 🌽 reasons, because of limestone rich water sources, because of the unique climate for maturation, but especially for the know how of the distillers in the area. They're definitely part of the secret sauce, as that is...

High N' Wicked "The Honorable" - Singular Limited Release No. 1 - Altamar Quick Sips
The best spirit I have ever tasted. ..! No bourbon no Scotch no other whiskey compares. If you buy one you will be buying multiple bottles
8% per year 1x0,92^¹⁰=0,43 So 8% per year after 10years gives 43% of the rum left in the barrell. NOT 80% 🤯😅
That was great Brandon.
Very interesting! Four Square did very well this year at the IWSC, congratulations Richard! So did we (pushed down to 14th place from last year's perfect score) , and we are in Kingman, AZ. So not all top-tier is made in the Caribbean! :) Shop local, y'all!
Great video Brandon! You’re absolutely right that consumer knowledge of additives are making its way to categories other than tequila. Both as someone in the industry and a consumer, I just like to know what’s in the bottle I’m selling or consuming.
Love it.
I knew you’d bring some good substance to the conversation!! Thank you!
Thank you!!!
Whiskey is a relationship business, so is finding your favorite cocktail! Have a conversation, build the relationship with your bartender and open up a whole new world!
Hands down best release since 2004
Brilliant advice as always my friend!
Where can you find it? If New Riff distills it, I’m in. Good on you for disclosing your distiller. Kentucky will get surpassed for the best bourbon if they don’t stop playing games with availability, in my opinion. I can’t tell you what state will do it but, it’s coming.
Distributed in a number of states across the US! Or you can purchase online through multiple retailers.
I have the bottle from 8!years ago and it’s pretty cool 😎 I want to try all of the four square rum 🍹 brands. 😊
I don't get the different notes in rum, it is ether a bit sweet, and just a bit of figs, only two dimensional to me.
Okay, I also had to look up exogenous. I'm learning! 😂
I always thought released meant sold. Great, informative content!
Love this! Thank you Brandon 🥃😎🇧🇧
I have 2 bottles of it. The Madeira Casks mask the Dickel, which is why I like it. 🥃
Beat me up, make me kum
I am learning about four square rum 🍹 and something tells me it’s going to be my go to 😂
I just figured that out myself! 👌🏼🍹
How does this compare to RL Seale's 12 year?
Probably one of the finest Foursquare exceptional cask releases that I've had the pleasure of tasting! RL Seale does it again!
Excellent Tequila !! I found all four over the last ten months.
Videos like this are so great, given the amount of detail and story that’s shared for all of us rum lovers. 👍👍👍
Any updates on Equipoise?
Inquiring minds NEED to know!
Hey, 13C pay attention to this, it's product clarity
Hands down the best informative video. The quality of the HNW is outstanding. I just hit subscribe.
Got the Rover. Can’t wait to try it
Awesomeness
❤
Easy drinking
Looking forward to trying the Chiqueño as the Palo Verde was delicious
💦 *promosm*
Why waste another clean glass?
Definitely an option to build in the same glass. We opted to build in a mixing glass to better control dilution.
My favorite rum for a daiquiri.
I’m new to rum, picked up a 2010 and touchstone bottle. I get a strong plastic type of smell and taste. Any recommendations on how to sip this?? I’m not getting any of the fruits and sweet notes. I need help. Thanks😢
Fantastic value for a high proof tequila don’t see it often with repos especially..How many bottles of the blanco and repo came out?
just got it, wonderful
I just got a bottle of each today. Any idea how limited this will be?
The cocchi is what I picked up when getting a sweet vermouth for negronis. I have no idea whether that was the right kind to get or not. Even though you covered Manhattans in this video, I appreciate your video!
Can’t wait for this to drop on the west coast. Is this the same size drop as Sovereignty?
Tasting blind is SO important IF you want to understand your palate/whiskey
Fantastic. I was going to make my first real video around this drink. Cocchi storico Vermouth di Torino is my pick for bourbon low rye high proofs. Never disappoints and mixes well with unusual bitters, like black walnut or a small dash of cardamom.
First
Deez nuutzz
So in other words it tastes like whiskey?
no no no its a hint of hazelnut spice chill with a hint of mahogany and a splash of oakwood sitting in forest aged 20 years chewed on and spit out by bears but also hits your nose with notes of grass and dirt and sweet apple and i’m gonna use big words to say this wine tastes good
Any timeframe for how long this will be around? I believe I heard something where Richard said it’s was a limited one time only release. Trying to figure out if i need to stock up now or if I have some time.
Except when directly comparing products. If you're tasting 2 together for comparison at the same proof/abv and one is considerably more "bitey" than the other it's definitely worth noting.
Sure it is only 4%-8% evaporation rate? kinda low for a Caribbean Island
Love the veritas (european name) Such a good mixing rum. Makes the ultimate Cuba libre!
The music annoying and distracting
