Grand Mayan Tequila
Highland agave, cognac cask depth, painted Talavera decanters.
The story behind Grand Mayan
Grand Mayan started in 2009, the project of Carlos Monsalve, a tequila veteran who still tastes every batch alongside his son, Carlos Jr. The agave is 100% Blue Weber, pulled mostly from the central Highlands of Jalisco, then slow-cooked in brick and stone ovens. No autoclaves. Fermentation runs long and natural, and the spirit is distilled two or three times depending on expression.
The aged bottles rest in a mix of American ex-bourbon oak and French ex-cognac casks, which is where that caramel and butterscotch spine comes from. Every bottle is a hand-painted Talavera ceramic decanter made by artists in Mexico City. We have poured these for years, and the decanters still walk out of here.
