Cascahuin Blanco Tahona Tequila really shows off the Cascahuin brand’s commitment to making their tequila using traditional craftsmanship methods. Whereas other tequila producers tend to use modern mechanical equipment to extract the ‘aguamiel’, the sweet juice from the cooked agave to be then turned into tequila, Cascahuin uses the time-tested, classical method of crushing the agave using a volcanic stone - the Tahona wheel - usually made of ‘volcanic basalt’. The Tahona wheel was traditionally pulled by a horse, but being the animal-lovers that the Mexicans are, they’ve switched to using a machine to pull the big, heavy rock. It’s a slower process that needs more work, but the outstanding tequila we’re left with has more unique flavours and textures.
