Do you like to geek out? We do! On the back of each label there is a map showing where your barrel was stored. The Cask ID or Lote No. are the same and tell you how to find your barrel. For instance Cask ID XA9/17A is broken down by
● XA – Extra Añejo
● 9 – 9 years old
● 17 – barrel number in stack
● A – Estiba (stack)

A Here are some relative conditions affecting the aging
● Estiba A was at the perimeter Estiba B was one stack in from the edge
○ In general A was slightly cooler than B
● The left edge of the stacks were adjacent to production and the right edge adjacent to more stacks of barrels
○ The temperature goes from cooler to warmer as we go from left to right
● In typical form, the barrels on top were aging in warmer conditions than the barrels on the bottom.

When Ezequiel Rodriguez took over the family estate in Michoacán his dream was to grow agave and make tequila. With his wife, Carmen, and their children, Cristina and Eli, and with help from good friends they began to plant agave in the early 2000’s. Made with 100% estate grown agave from Michoacán and distilled to the family’s high standards in Arandas, this was the first Tequila of its kind. The Rodriguez family began importing Mi Casa to the U.S. but after a time the project went dormant. All the while a production run sat patiently, getting ready for the right moment. With a unicorn inventory and a beautifully updated identity, Mi Casa is relaunching with that last batch made over a decade ago. It was distilled to 54.5% abv, filling 118 well-used Tennessee whiskey barrels. What wasn’t barreled was left to condition in stainless steel.
