The brand portfolio also includes a global community of tequila-passionate and professional bartenders, called the Tahona Society.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Olmeca Introduces Tahona Society Globally )〕 == Production == Made from hand-selected blue agave picked at the peak of their maturity after 7–8 years of growth. Once harvested, traditional brick ovens are then used to slow cook the piñas, bringing out the sweet and herbal agave notes. Part of the production process involves using the 500-year-old traditional and artisan Tahona method, which consists of a 2 tonne millstone made of volcanic rock, known locally as Tezontle. Once the Agave piñas have been harvested and cooked, they are crushed by the Tahona, creating a pulp and drawing out the sweet juice from the fibres. This juice is referred to as Tahona Liquid, of which a percentage is integrated into the fermentation and distillation process of all Olmeca Tequilas, with Olmeca Tezón exclusively containing 100% Tahona Liquid – certified by Consejo Regulador del Tequila.〔Constancia CRT Proceso Artesanal Tahona Tezón, 22/06/2009/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Olmeca Tequila」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
