In the shadow of Hacienda San Jose del Refugio is another Amatitán factory by the name of 'La Regional'. The factory has been producing tequila since the mid 1970's and apparently once produced the "Single Barrel" añejo in the original "Cactus" bottles for Porfidio. "Regional" is the appropriately named, proprietary label of this distillery. Señor Reifschneider, the owner and imbiber of this particular bottle has told me that this relatively simply packaged añejo, though very inexpensive at least in Mexico, is actually quite good. Tequila Regional is now imported by I.P.N. and consequently available at Hi-Time Wine Cellars for $46.99.
