Tequila Folcklore Review: Why does NOM 1662 matter?

One of my favorite tequila brands is moving to a new distillery, so when I was in Tlaquepaque and saw a bottle of Folcklore Jalisciense made at that exact distillery, I had to buy it.

Folcklore is produced at NOM 1662, located in Unión de San Antonio, Jalisco, in the Los Altos region. I wanted to get an early look at what this relatively new tequila-producing operation is capable of producing.

In this video, we're focusing entirely on Tequila Folcklore and the distillery behind it.

I'll take you through:

- Tequila Folcklore Jalisciense

- NOM 1662

- Unión de San Antonio, Jalisco

- 100% Blue Weber Agave

- Traditional stone ovens

- Roller mill extraction

- Open-air fermentation
