Distiller Notes
Elegant and intensely aromatic, with the sweetness of freshly cooked agave hearts, herbal touches, black pepper, butterscotch and a touch of savory olive. The peppercorn spiciness of agave leads the palate, backed up by an array of herbal notes – spearmint, rosemary and aniseed – as well as a contrasting, fresh citrus hit. Surprisingly long for an un-aged spirit, with sweetness and green herbs.

Tasting Panel
The agave for this tequila is estate grown and the liquid distilled with well water in copper pot stills. Salted-lime aromas bring in the freshness of the agave. Pineapple and vanilla coat the palate, which has a clean yet earthy finish.
Tequila Blanco, or ‘white Tequila’, is also known as Tequila Plata, or ‘silver Tequila’. Its clear color is the result of being bottled immediately after distillation instead of being aged in oak barrels like Tequila Reposado or Anejo. Because of their youth and lack of barrel influence, Blanco Tequilas are thought to offer the purest expression of blue agave available, with notes of citrus and pepper. However, they can also be quite forceful and energetic on the palate without the moderating influence of time and wood.
