0Spice Up Dad’s Bar with this Ultra-Premium Tequila for Father’s Day
IF you should want to get me something for Father’s Day LOL look no further for the perfect gift than Flecha Azul Tequila.
Flecha Azul stands apart as a truly authentic brand co-founded in 2017 and launched in 2020 by Mexican-American PGA golfer Abraham Ancer and Mexican entrepreneur Aron Marquez, rooted in the bonds of friendship and love for Mexican culture.
Flecha Azul is hand-crafted in Jalisco, Mexico, from fully-matured 100% estate-grown Blue Weber Agave and produced by a multi-generational, family-owned and operated distillery with practices dating back to 1840. For context, Flecha’s Agave piñas are cooked in traditional masonry ovens called hornos, a centuries-old process that honors the heritage of tequila-making. And rest assured, there are no diffusers in sight. Today, Flecha Azul consists of five expressions of top-shelf tequila (available for purchase on Drizly): Blanco, Reposado,Añejo, Añejo Cristalino, and Extra Añejo.
Flecha Azul’s Blanco tequila is the foundation for all of the brand’s tequilas and delivers a balanced profile of strong and sweet, crisp tasting notes, and a refreshing bright flavor. The hint of agave on the first sip amplifies the trueness of the spirit from start to finish.
