Can de la calle was the first premium artisanal agave wine ever created, made by renowned tequilera Melly Barajas, the creator of la gritona reposado tequila and the leyenda de mexico tequila marks. Can de la calle is named for the stray dogs that Melly rescues from the streets of Guadalajara and brings out to live at her distillery in rural Jalisco. At the distillery, the dogs live a safe and fulfilling existence, where they are free to roam the vast countryside and amongst her agave fields along lake Presa Del Salto. The dogs are the distillery’s ever-present ambassadors, and they are loved and cared for by all of the women who work on the property. This agave wine is fermented rather than distilled, which accounts for half the alcohol volume of regular tequila. It goes with pretty much anything. Here Margaret shows some delicious fruity options. A perfect gift for Mother’s Day.
