Hacienda Vieja Tequila
Two honest tequilas, poured plain and priced fair.
The story behind Hacienda Vieja
Tequila is a spirit distilled from the blue Weber agave in Mexico, and the two main styles you see on most shelves are blanco and reposado. Blanco goes straight from still to bottle, so the agave reads bright and clean. Reposado rests in oak for a couple of months or more, which softens the edges and adds a little color and warmth.
We keep Hacienda Vieja Blanco and Reposado here in Commack, one or two bottles at a time, so call ahead if you want to be sure one is on the shelf.

Which Hacienda Vieja is right for you?
The blanco runs 19.99 and the reposado 21.99 for a 750mL bottle, which is a fair place to start if you want a mixing tequila and a sipping one without spending much. Both are small stock here, so a quick call to the store at 631 343 7200 saves you a trip.
Bright agave and citrus hold up in a margarita without hiding the lime.
A little oak softens it enough to pour neat or over one ice cube.
