Ixesha elide kakhulu, i-tequila yayine-rep embi. Nangona kunjalo, ukuvuselelwa kwayo kule minyaka ilishumi idlulileyo-ukufumana ukuthandwa njengemimoya "ephezulu" kunye nomoya ophantsi we-cal-kuthoba ngokuthe ngcembe abathengi ukuba ayisiyonto ngaphandle kolwazelelelo olungelulo. Okwangoku, ukuba usadibanisa i-tequila kunye ne-cringe-y shots enoxanduva lomqolo wakho wosuku olulandelayo, kusenokwenzeka ukuba usela uhlobo olungelulo lwe-tequila. Kulungile: Azikho zonke i-tequila ezidalwe zilingana. Abanye banokufihla izongezo-okanye isiraphu yengqolowa ephezulu ye-fructose- ukuze ungafuni ukusela.

Ukufumanisa ukuba isempilweni kangakanani na i-tequila, kwaye uqinisekise ukuba akukho shit ingaqhelekanga kutywala bakho, fumana iingcebiso kwiingcali zoshishino malunga nendlela yokukhetha eyona tequila ilungileyo.

Yintoni kanye kanye iTequila, kunjalo?

Masiqale ngeziseko: Ukuze umoya uhlelwe njenge-tequila, kufuneka uveliswe ukusuka kwi-100 yepesenti ye-web web agave ekhuliswe kwilizwe laseMexico iJalisco okanye kwiindawo ezithile zaseMichoacán, eGuanajuato, eNayarit naseTamaulipas. Ezi zizwe ziquka i-tequila yemvelaphi yemvelaphi (DOM) - echaza imveliso njengento ekhethekileyo kwindawo ethile yejografi - njengoko ilawulwa ngumthetho waseMexico, ichaza ingcali ye-tequila, uClayton Szczech we-Experience Agave.

Nabani na okhe waya eMexico kwaye waqhutywa kwimihlaba edlulileyo ye-agave, uyakuqonda ukuba i-agave ayikhulanga kuphela kwezi ntlanu. Xa imimoya ye-agave iveliswa kumazwe angaphandle kwe-DOM, ayinakubizwa ngokuba yi-tequila. Ke, i-mezcal okanye i-bacanora (eyenziwe nge-agave nayo) iba yinto elingana newayini ehlwahlwazayo yi-champagne- yonke itequila ngumoya we-agave, kodwa ayizizo zonke iigave ze-tequila.

Intwana encinci malunga neAgave

IAgave sisichumisi esakha sagqalwa njengesona singcwele kwezona ndawo zingcwele zaseMexico ngaphambi kweColumbian (ngaphambi kokufika kukaChristopher Columbus ngo-1492), ucacisa uAdam Fodor, umseki weInternational Tequila Academy. "Amagqabi ayo asetyenziselwa ukwenza uphahla, iimpahla, iintambo kunye nephepha, utshilo. Kwiintlobo ezingaphezu kwama-200 zeagave, kukho iintlobo ezimalunga ne-160 ezifumaneka kwindawo yayo yaseMexico. (Ngaphandle kwe-Mexico, i-agave ikhula e-Mzantsi-ntshona e-US, ngakumbi eCalifornia, nakwiindawo eziphakamileyo- ngaphezulu kwe-4500 yeenyawo- eMzantsi naseMbindi Merika.) kuphekwe kwaye kuhlafunwa,” utshilo uFodor. I-Tequila ivela ekuphekeni "i-piña" ngaphambi kokuyichitha ubuncinane kabini.

I-ICYDK, i-agave eluhlaza ilindelwe ixabiso lezibonelelo zayo zempilo. "I-Agavin, iswekile yendalo efunyenwe kwincindi yesityalo se-agave ekrwada, ikholelwa ukuba iziphatha njengefayibha yokutya (oku kuthetha ukuba ayixutywanga ngendlela efanayo nezinye izinto ezithathwe kwi-carb) - enokuphucula ulawulo lwe-glycemic kunye nokunyusa ukuhlutha. (iimvakalelo zokugcwala), utshilo uEve Persak, MS, RDN Izifundo zokuqala zibonisa ukuba i-agave sap ekrwada ikwanayo nexabiso eliphantsi le-prebiotic (evuselela i-gut microbiota), i-saponins (enokuthi ithomalalise ukudumba), ii-antioxidants (ezixhasa ukungakhuseleki) kunye nentsimbi esekwe kwizityalo (iminerali ebalulekileyo yabantu abalandela ukutya okusekwe kwizityalo) , uthi.

Isempilweni kangakanani iTequila?

Okulusizi kukuba, ngenxa yokuba iagave ibiliselwa ukuze kutshizwe i<em>tequila, inkoliso yeempawu ezisempilweni iyaphela. Nangona kunjalo, iingcali ze-tequila kunye neengcali zokutya zidumisa umoya njengotywala "ophilileyo". "I-Tequila sesinye seziselo zotywala endizicebisa kubaxumi abathanda ukubethwa ngoyaba ngamanye amaxesha kodwa bangade bayiyeke ngokupheleleyo intlalontle yabo kunye neenzame zesondlo," utshilo uPersak.

I-Tequila ine-calories ezingama-97 nge-jigger (aka shot) kwaye ayikho i-carbohydrate, ngokweSebe lezoLimo lase-United States, njengokuba kunjalo neminye imimoya efana ne-vodka, i-rum kunye ne-whisky. Oku kunika umda phezu kwewayini, ibhiya, kunye neecider ezinzima, eziqulethe iikhalori ezininzi, iicarbohydrates, kunye neswekile ngokukhonza. (I-FTR, i-seltzers ene-spiked inenani elifanayo leekhalori njenge-tequila ngokukhonza, kodwa iqulethe iigrama ezimbalwa ze-carbs kunye noshukela.) I-Tequila nayo i-gluten-free, njengokuba zininzi imimoya edibeneyo-ewe, kwanabo bachithwa kwiinkozo . Kwaye, ekubeni umoya ocacileyo, i-tequila iyancipha ngokubanzi kwi-congeners (imichiza ephuma kwinkqubo yokuvutshelwa kwaye enokwenza i-hangover ibe yimbi) kunotywala obumnyama, ngokutsho kweMayo Clinic.

Kuyaphawuleka ukuba, xa kufikwa kwii-cocktails, abaxubi kulapho iikhalori ezongezelelweyo kunye neswekile zinokungena khona, ke ukuba ujonge ukugcina isiselo sakho sisempilweni, khetha into efana namanzi ahlwahlwazayo okanye ukucudisa ijusi yeziqhamo ezintsha. , ezihlala ziphantsi kweekhalori, iswekile, kunye neecarbs, utshilo uPersak.

Iindidi ezahlukeneyo zeTequila kunye neZongezo

Nangona zonke i-tequila ngokubanzi zinika inani elifanayo leekhalori kunye nezondlo, kukho iindidi ezahlukeneyo ze-tequila ezichaza ukuba zenziwe njani kwaye zingaphakathi.

UBlanco tequila, maxa wambi ebizwa ngokuba yisilivere okanye i<em>plata, lolona hlobo lunyulu lwe<em>tequila; yenziwe nge-100 yepesenti ye-web web agave engenazo izongezo kwaye ibhotile kungekudala emva kokucoca ulwelo. Amanqaku ayo okuva ngokufuthi aquka i-agave esandula ukusikwa (ivumba elilinganisa izityalo eziluhlaza okanye ezingavuthwanga).

I-tequila yegolide idla ngokuba yi-mixto, oku kuthetha ukuba ayiyo-100 ekhulwini ye-agave, kwaye kwezo meko idla ngokuba yi-blanco tequila enencasa kunye nezongezo zombala. Xa ngu Iipesenti ezili-100 ze-agave (kwaye ke ayisiyi-mixto), kusenokwenzeka ukuba ngumxube we-blanco kunye ne-tequila endala, ngokwe-Experience Agave.

I-tequila endala, ebhalwe reposado, añejo, okanye i-extra añejo, baneminyaka ubuncinane iinyanga ezintathu, unyaka omnye, okanye iminyaka emithathu, ngokulandelelanayo. Ukuya kwipesenti enye yevolumu iyonke inokuba zizongezo ezinje ngeesiraphu ezinencasa, i-glycerin, i-caramel, kunye ne-oki, ucacisa uSzczech. "Izongezo kunzima ukuzibona kwii-tequila ezindala, kwaye uninzi lwazo lulingisa into eyenziwa kukuguga komgqomo," utshilo.

Ngelixa oko kungavakali kukhulu kangako, kuyinto eqhelekileyo kwindawo yotywala. Ukujonga, iwayini inezongezelelo ezingama-50 ezahlukeneyo, ngokomthetho we-EU, kwaye ngaphezulu kwezingongezelelo ezingama-70 zilawulwa ngaphakathi eU.S., kubandakanya iiasidi, isalfure, kunye neswekile, ezibandakanywa ngokubanzi njengezinto zokuqinisa kunye nokugcina incasa, utshilo uFodor. "Xa kuthelekiswa naleyo, i-tequila sisiselo esincinci kakhulu ngokubhekisele kwizongezo," utshilo. (Inxulumene: Ngaba iiSulfites eziseWayini zingalunganga kuwe?)

Zenza ntoni ke ezi zongezo? Ngokwesiqhelo baphucula incasa, nokuba iyenza ibe mnandi (isiraphu), umlomo ojikeleze ngakumbi uvakale (glycerin), ukwenza ibonakale ngathi indala kunenyani (ukukhupha i-oki), okanye ukuhambisa umbala (caramel), ucacisa umqeqeshi wezempilo kunye no-bartender u-Amie Ward. Izongezo zingasetyenziselwa ukukhulisa amazinga okuvutshelwa, ukudala iiprofayili zokungcamla okufanayo, kunye nokulungisa iimpawu ezingathandekiyo okanye iintsilelo kwimveliso yokugqibela, uyongezelela.

Ngelixa ingcambu yokwenyani yokusela kukuselwa kotywala gabalala (uyayazi drill: Yonwabela ngokumodareyitha kwaye unamanzi phakathi kweziselo), ezi zongezo zinokuba negalelo kwiimvakalelo zakho zosuku olulandelayo, ucacisa ingcali ye-tequila uCarolyn Kissick, intloko imfundo kunye namava okungcamla kwi-SIP Tequila. Ngokomzekelo, i-tequila esele ikhulile inezicatshulwa ze-oki ezihlala kwimigqomo, "eyongeza incasa kodwa ifake i-tequila ngamasuntswana amancinci anokongeza kwintloko yakho," utsho. Kwaye ngelixa i-oki inokuba sisiphumo senkqubo yokuguga komgqomo wendalo, isicatshulwa se-oki sinokufakwa njengesongezo, utshilo uSzczech. "Inxalenye yento eyenzekayo kukususwa kwaloo mbala, ivumba kunye nezinto zevumba ezivela emthini, ekuthi ukudityaniswa kwazo kucatshulwe." Ukuthatha ngokubanzi apha kukuba izongezo (ok.

Kwaye kwelo nqaku, makhe sithethe nge-tequila mixto. "Ukuba ayitsho ukuba 'i-100 yeepesenti ye-agave tequila' kwileyibhile, ke yi-mixto, kwaye ukuya kuthi ga kwi-49 pesenti yotywala apho yayibiliswe kwiswekile engekho-agave," kusho uSzczech. Usenokuba ucinga, "Kodwa ingaba yinyani njani xa i-tequila ifanele ukuba yi-100 ye-agave?" Nantsi into: Ukuba i-agave ibandakanyiwe ikhulile kwi-DOM, i-mixto isengathunyelwa njenge-tequila.

Abavelisi abanyanzelekanga ukuba baveze izithako ezingaphakathi kwimixto tequilas yabo, utshilo uAshley Rademacher, owayesakuba yibhartender kunye nomseki webhlog yendlela yokuphila yabasetyhini, uSwift Wellness. Kwaye "kule mihla, ukuba 'enye' iswekile inokwenzeka ukuba ibe isiraphu yengqolowa ephezulu ye-fructose," utshilo uSzczech. Oku kuhlala kusenziwa ukugcina imfuno. Ngenxa yokuba i-agave ithatha iminyaka emihlanu ukuya kweli-9 ukuze ikhule ngokupheleleyo, ukufaka kwenye iswekile kunokuvumela umvelisi ukuba avelise i-tequila engaphezulu ngokukhawuleza. Kwaye oko akulunganga: Iifomathi ezigxininisiweyo ze-fructose, ezinje ngesiraphu yengqolowa ene-high-fructose, zinxulunyaniswa neenkxalabo zempilo kubandakanya isifo esinamafutha esibindi kunye nokuqaqanjelwa sisisu (isifo se-metabolic), utshilo uPerak. Ke ukuba ufuna i-tequila esempilweni i-mixto ayisiyondlela yokuhamba.

Uyikhetha njani i-Tequila elungileyo

1. Funda ileyibhile.

Kubaqalayo, ukuba ufuna i-tequila esempilweni, yiya kwi-agave yeepesenti ezili-100. "Njengokuba unokujonga 'organic' okanye 'gluten-free' kwileyibhile, kuya kufuneka ujonge ukuthenga kuphela ii-tequila ezibhalwe 'iipesenti eziyi-100 ze-agave," utshilo uRademacher. Ukwaphawula amaxabiso kuhlala kusisalathiso somgangatho, kodwa hayi rhoqo. Kwaye xa kuziwa kwizongezo, ngelishwa, akukho zibophelelo zomthetho zokuxela ukusetyenziswa kwazo kwi-tequila, utsho uSzczech. Oko kuthetha ukuba kuya kufuneka wenze uphando.

2. Khangela izinto eziswiti.

Ngaphandle kwendlela yotywala, ungasebenzisa eli qhinga kuTerray Glasman, umsunguli we-Amorada Tequila, ukufumanisa ukuba i-tequila isebenzisa i-sweeteners. "Galela intwana yayo entendeni yesandla sakho kwaye uthambise izandla zakho kunye," utsho uGlasman. "Ukuba, xa yomile, incangathi, loo tequila isebenzisa iilekese."

3. Thatha iingcebiso zengcali.

I-Szczech icebisa ukuba kusetyenziswe i-Tequila Matchmaker, idathabheyisi ye-tequila evela kwiqonga lezemfundo le-tequila Taste Tequila, ukufumana izincedisi ezithile kunye neempawu ezivelisa itequila zazo ngaphandle kokusebenzisa izongezo ezivunyelweyo. Ngelixa olu luhlu aluphelelanga-kwaye luqulethe iibrendi ezininzi ezincinci ezinokuba nzima ukuzifumana-ezinye ezinkulu, ezinje ngePatrón, zenza ukusika. UFodor uthi iViva Mexico, Atanasio, Calle 23, kunye neTerralta zizinto ezimbalwa azithandayo.

4. Yazi oku malunga ne-organic tequila.

Ukuze i-tequila ithathelwe ingqalelo njenge-organic, i-agave kufuneka ikhule ngokwendalo (ngaphandle kwezichumisi okanye izibulali zinambuzane) kunye nokulima ngezinto eziphilayo kunzima, utshilo uFodor. Ukuba i-tequila iyi-organic ye-USDA eqinisekisiweyo, iya kubonakala ngokucacileyo kwileyibhile yomoya, ke kulula ukuba uchonge ngaphandle kobukho bezongezo- kodwa ngenxa yokuba i-tequila yendalo ayithethi ukuba ayinazongezo, oko kuthetha ukuba ayenzi mahluko kwindlela esempilweni ngayo okanye engekho. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba ukuthenga i-organic yinxalenye yendlela yakho yokuphila, ukufuna "iincinci, ii-craft distillers ezivelisa ngendlela efanayo nazo kwizizukulwana, unethuba lokufumana izinto ezizinzileyo kunye nezinto eziphilayo ezisetyenziswayo," utsho uKissick.

Kwisikimu esikhulu, kungcono ukufuna i-tequila engenasongezelelo ngaphezulu kwe-organic eqinisekisiweyo kuba inkqubo yokuqinisekisa iyabiza kwaye inde, ke ezinye iinkampani ziyayiyeka nokuba zinemveliso esemgangathweni kwaye ziyahlangabezana neziqinisekiso ezininzi. (Idibeneyo: Ngaba kufuneka usebenzise iikhondom ze-Organic?)

"Ukufakwa kuluhlu lweTequila Matchmaker kufuneka uvivinywe izixhobo zakho zokucoca izixhobo, ndicinga ukuba zivakala ngakumbi kunesiqinisekiso sezinto eziphilayo (njengoko zimbalwa kwintengiso [nesiqinisekiso], kwaye ukuba kwenziwa itequila Kwale ndawo idityanisiweyo ingekho ngokwasemzimbeni, awunakubanga ukuba ukwibhotile yendalo,” ugxininisa uMaxwell Reis, umlawuli wesiselo saseGracias Madre, indawo yokutyela yaseMexico eNtshona Hollywood, eCalifornia.

5. Cinga ngokuziphatha nokuzinza.

Ngaphandle kwento ekuyiyo ngokwenene kwi-tequila, kubalulekile ukuba ukhumbule imigaqo yokuziphatha elandela uphawu lwentengiso. "Xa kuziwa ekuthengeni i-tequila 'enempilo,' ndingacela umngeni kuwe ukuba umbe indlela eyenziwe ngayo ngumvelisi kwaye ukuba ilungile kwaye ilungile," utshilo u-bartender, umcebisi kunye nomlobi weziselo uTyler Zielinski. Ukuba uphawu lubaphatha kakuhle abasebenzi babo kwaye ludwelise igama le-distiller kwibhotile, lunesicwangciso esivakalayo sokulima i-agave yabo kwaye siqinisekise ukuba umhlaba unempilo kwaye i-agave iyakwazi ukufikelela ekuvuthweni okupheleleyo (okuthatha iminyaka emihlanu ukuya kwesithoba), kwaye "Iipesenti ezili-100 ze-web web agave tequila ene-NOM kwilebhile (inombolo yeNorma Oficial Mexicana ichaza ukuba ibhotile yinyani eyi-tequila kwaye ivela kumvelisi we-tequila), emva koko ungathemba ukuba uphawu luvelisa imveliso efanele ukuselwa."

Xa ungathandabuzeki, uphando nge-tequila distillery okanye nge-imeyile ukubuza malunga nenkqubo yabo yokulima kunye ne-distilling, utsho uGlasman. "Ukuba bayathandabuza ukuphendula imibuzo yakho, kunokwenzeka ukuba bafihle into."

Isikhumbuzo: Amandla akho enkcitho anokunceda ekwenzeni impembelelo, kwanakwindlela yayo encinci. . "Ngaba uyafuna ukusela i-tequila enexabiso eliphantsi kodwa elinexabiso elingaphezulu okanye ezesiko ezithatha ubungakanani be-agave eyenziwe ngamashishini amancinci, amancinci, asekuhlaleni? Ngokuthenga ezi bhotile, uxhasa umvelisi we-indie wesiko kunye nowengingqi we-tequila ngokuthe ngqo ngokuvelisa i-tequila eyodwa, ethembekileyo. "

Ke ngelixa u-odola umjikelo wendlu i-tequila shots ebharini ihlala ibonakala ngathi "ilungile" umbono ngelo xesha, yenza uphando ngaphambi kobusuku bakho obuzayo (okanye ivenkile yotywala elandelayo) kwaye ucacise uphawu lweemveliso ezisemgangathweni ezingathandekiyo kuphela ulungile kwaye wenza okulungileyo, kodwa wamkela izithethe zento oyiyo umoya.

Uphengululo lwe
