Gran Centenario Plata is mellowed twenty-eight days in oak before bottling — and Drinkhacker gave it a B-plus, noting how much even a month of barrel changes a tequila. Lázaro Gallardo, a tavern keeper in the town of Tequila, began blending rested and long-aged tequilas together in 1857 — the Selección Suave method — and launched Gran Centenario in 1895 for the coming century; his son designed the Art Deco bottle with the Angel of Independence in the 1920s, and it's made today at La Rojeña, NOM 1122, the Cuervo family's Casa Cuervo, home of 1800 and Maestro Dobel. The Plata is 100% blue Weber agave from the Cuervo estates, slow-cooked in brick ovens, double-distilled, rested twenty-eight days in oak, and bottled at 40% ABV in the Art Deco bottle. Drinkhacker: a bold, rustic nose heavy with greenery and bracing agave, peppery and spiced, a palate mellowed with caramel and vanilla but still plenty spicy, mildly floral on the finish — no complaints at $28. 88 Bamboo calls the Art Deco aesthetic among the most stylish in tequila. Honest note: a Cuervo-house plata built for smoothness, with more agave character than its stablemates — the value bottle of the line, and a Margarita workhorse with a bottle that looks the part.
