Porfidio don't make their own tequila, instead they buy what they consider the best from other manufacturers. Austrian entrepreneur, Martin Grassl, who created the brand, rents five distilleries from several weeks to a few months every year, replacing its employees with his own crew to make his product. It may be difficult for consumers who want to know which distillery is producing their favourite Porfidio at any given time, but then, who cares if it's as good as this.

Tasting notes: Bright gold / ideal clarity. Pure and evocative scents of dill pickle, powdered mustard and white pepper in the opening phase. Several minutes exposure finds hints of beeswax, salted lime, green olive, brine and more. Fabulous complexity. Light entry develops a medium-to-full bodied aperitif-styled profile that includes dried grass followed by gherkin, brine and smokey cardamom; late dill refreshes the finish. Sophisticated and beautifully rendered. First class. 39.3% Alc./Vol.
