Codigo 1530 is a Mexican tequila producer that crafts premium agave spirits in the traditional tequila-producing regions of Mexico. The brand focuses on creating tequilas using traditional production methods combined with modern techniques to produce both blanco and reposado expressions.
The producer follows conventional tequila-making processes, utilizing 100% blue agave that is harvested, cooked, fermented, and distilled according to established standards. Their reposado expression undergoes aging in oak barrels, which imparts color and additional complexity compared to their unaged blanco. The aging process for reposado tequilas typically ranges from two months to one year, allowing the spirit to develop smoother characteristics while retaining the essential agave character.
Current offerings include both a blanco tequila, which showcases the pure agave flavor profile, and a reposado that demonstrates the influence of oak aging on the base spirit. These two expressions represent the fundamental categories that form the backbone of most tequila producer portfolios.
